You should treat everything from the IGI with extreme caution. Robinson's Lane was a Calvanistic Presbyterian Meeting House, founded in 1739 by a secession of part of the congregation from the Corn Market Chapel. St. George's, in Belvedere Road, built in 1890, was originally a Presbyterian church. It replaced the Villiers Street Chapel (1825), which in turn had replaced the Robinson's Lane meeting house. It is now a United Reform Church. Regards Stan Mapstone
