Administrative / biographical background

Introduction

Adeyfield Free Church was built as a part of the development of Adeyfield by the Hemel Hempstead Development Corporation. The actual church, in Leverstock Green Road was opened in 1953, although the Free Church met in the Greenhills Club in Adeyfield from 1952. The Church was to provide for all non-conformists in the Adeyfield area.

In 1972 the Church affiliated itself to the United Reformed Church but remains known as the Adeyfield Free Church.
