The first building on this site dates from 1808. A Church was formed in the year 1837 with an initial membership of five. This was called a Baptist Open Communion Church and was under the direction of the Rev Thomas Coles the Baptist Minister at Bourton on the Water. Eight more Members were added later that year. Two years later a decision was made to replace the church building which was in need of repair and had become too small. The new building was completed in 1839.
