The Upper Brook Street Unitarian Chapel was building in 1837-9, to the designs of two of the nineteenth-century's most esteemed architects, Sir Charles Barry and AWN Pugin. The former chapel stands to the rear of the University Manchester and has now been conserved and converted into residential apartments. As part of this process, the chapel and its graveyard were subjected to detailed architectural and archaeological investigation. This booklet presents the results of this work and also charts the growth and importance of Manchester's nineteenth-century Unitarian congregation, who formed a significant political and social force that helped to shape the world's first industrial city.
