Woodhouse Eaves Baptist Church History
History - 225 Years
Woodhouse Eaves Baptist Church is the oldest church in the village. The church began meeting in a house on Main Street in the 1750's. The first building was erected in 1796 when the present site was given to the church by Edward Johnson (1749-1807). In 1885 the chapel was restored and modified on the same site, but it was demolished and completely rebuilt in 1981, with its distinctive octagonal shape. So 2021 is the 225th anniversary of the first church building and the 40th anniversary of the new church building.
“Edward Johnson, a worthy general baptist, had been turned out of a profitable farm at Swithland, on account of his religion; and had settled at Woodhouse Eaves, a village about three miles south of Loughborough. Not deterred by the persecution he had already suffered, he cheerfully opened his house in 1780, for the preaching of the gospel. Many attended; and a foundation was laid, on which a separate interest has since been raised.”
Adam Taylor (1818), ‘The History of the English General Baptists, Part II: The New Connection', Ch. 1, Sect. 2, p.160.
