1861 – The first chapel, Church Street
The first Methodist Chapel was opened at what is now 17, Church Street in Hampton in 1861, as part of the Richmond Circuit of churches. In 1887 Hampton, along with East Molesey, Teddington, Sunbury and Hanworth churches, left this Circuit and became the new Hampton Court Circuit. This was renamed the Teddington Circuit in 1892, and remains so today, with the same five churches.

The first Church in Percy Road (now the Hall) was opened on 27th March 1926, by Mrs J Raybould, with the opening service conducted by Dr Dinsdale T Young.
