Matthew Henry’s
Chapel,
Chester
Meeting in the
church hall in Waverton, a village
just outside Chester,
this small but lively congregation of up to 12 meets on the first and
third
Sundays of the month at 3pm. The flexible nature of the space lends
itself to
doing things differently and “circle services” are held from time to
time.

a church
imaginatively converted with good facilities.
