The Baptist College, Stepney, was opened in Stepney in the East End of London in 1810 by the Particular Baptists. Its buildings included rooms for tutors and students, a refectory, a library and a chapel. The college relocated to larger premises at Holford House in 1856 and became Regent's Park College.[1]
The only remaining structure is the largely-destroyed Baptist Academical Institution chapel. The building remained until it was damaged during World War II; only three parts of the college estate remain.[2]
The site is currently part of the Stepney City Farm. Crossrail works are taking place there.[3]
