Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Salubrious Place, St Ives And so it should be too as home to the Zion Congregational Church [Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion] and all.

Old St Ives has a number of interesting and unusual street names - in this case it would be interesting to know what came first, the chapel or the name? The original chapel of what would become the 'Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion'[sic] was founded in 1761 by Selina Shirley, Countess of Huntingdon, in North Street Brighton. She is reputed to have paid for the chapel by selling her jewellery.

The Calvinistic Methodist George Whitefield was her first preacher and the chapel was so successful that by the time the Countess died in 1791 several other chapels had also opened throughout the country including ones at Bath and Worcester.
