Brethren congregations represent one enduring branch of the Christian faith in these islands. The Brethren movement began in Dublin and Plymouth in the late 1820s as a search for simple New Testament church life without ordained clergy. Open Brethren assemblies, often known as Gospel Halls or evangelical churches, break bread weekly and are led by local elders. Several hundred assemblies meet across the UK. The tradition traces its modern form to Late 1820s.

The congregation shares in a long history of worship in England, where the parish system has shaped local life for more than a thousand years. Didcot lies within Oxfordshire, whose county town is Oxford. The church forms part of the wider Brethren presence across Oxfordshire.

Thinking of coming along? Simply turn up: no invitation is needed. Allow a little extra time for getting there, as parking close to older church buildings can be tight, and if accessibility is a concern, a quick call ahead will confirm arrangements such as ramps, accessible toilets or a hearing loop.
