Boxmoor Baptist Church Published by E. Needham & Co, Hemel Hempstead, "The Art Series" circa 1910
The Boxmoor Baptist church owes its origin to the efforts of Mrs. Ann Hobson and Miss Mary Carey, sister of Carey the missionary. In 1822 they opened a room at Two Waters, and a Sunday school was begun there. In 1825 a chapel was erected and a church formed in the following year. A new chapel upon the same site was opened in 1864, From: 'Victoria County History, Hertfordshire: volume 2 (1908)
The Church has now been demolished
