The Historic Chapels Trust cares for redundant non-Anglican churches chapels and other places of worship in England. Established in 1993, it takes into ownership buildings of exceptional architectural and historic significance that are no longer used by their congregations. In practice this means buildings listed Grade I or II* by English Heritage. It was founded in response to the large number of places of worship that were being demolished or destroyed by insensitive conversion and it remains the only body with this mission in England.
