The Huguenots in London
By J. E. Hazlett Lynch
Orange Street Congregational Church is located in the heart of London, between Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square, and west of St Martin’s in the Field, and stands on the site of a Huguenot chapel, established in 1693. This Huguenot-founded church was opened and dedicated on Easter Eve 1693 by its first minister Daniel Chamier. It was then known as the Temple Of Leicester Fields (also known as Leicester Fields Chapel), the name by which the Huguenots called their meeting houses, as in those days the Leicester Square district was indeed a "district of fields."
