An unusual photo taken by A J Lumbert of a 'Mission Room' at Primrose Hill school set aside as a church. This may well be the photo taken in 1897 and sold at a shilling a time to raise money to buy new hymnbooks for the tiny church*.

This image was taken from a "Magic Lantern" slide.

* Primrose Hill: Church and Community - Aileen Powell 2008
