(WBC logo) A brief history of WBC.

The changing face of the interior of the building.

Early photo of inside the church
An early photograph of the inside of the church.

The date of this photo is unknown, but the chairs on the platform and
the lack of the reading desk indicate a date in the late 1930's or early 1940's.

One curious aspect of the photo is the narrow centre aisle as there were two
distinctive aisles clearly marked out in the flooring and running back from
the two outermost pillars. It is possible that the chairs were set out differently
for a special service or they may have been arranged specially for the photo.

If any past members of WBC can shed any light on this photo we would be
very pleased to hear from you.

The inside of the church building in 1975.

The layout of the platform has changed, but the pillars are still there.
If you look closely you can see that the chains between the pillars
are also still there.

Inside the church in 1999
The inside of the church building in 1999.

This photo was taken in February 1999.
Quite a lot has changed. The pillars are gone opening up the
platform area and we have more comfortable seats!

Close-up photos of the two stained glass windows
at the front can be found on the
Sunday services and about us pages.

Inside the church in 2002
The inside of the church building, June 2002.

Not a lot different from the February 1999 photo.
The only change being to the layout of the platform area.

The platform area hasn't changed, but there us a major change to the layout of the chairs,
they are now arranged in a slight semi-circle with a centre aisle.
