First Christian Reformed Church of London
The First Christian Reformed Church of London, previously known as the Talbot Street Baptist Church and popularly known as the Talbot Street Church, is a Christian Reformed Church in London, Ontario, Canada. Built between 1881 and 1882 following a design by Thomas Henry Tracy and George F. Durand, the church was intended to provide a space for London's growing Baptist community. In 1953, the church was sold to the Christian Reformed Church, which began holding services in 1954. The Reformed Church has continued to occupy the space, maintaining and expanding the building. Architecturally, the church is a three-storey building in the Gothic Revival style built with white brick and accents of red sandstone and grey stone. It has been noted for its polygonal stair towers, as well as its multiple high windows and lancet arches. Modifications made since the original construction have included the removal of the bell-cote and the addition of a new wing for classrooms. The church was designated under the Ontario Heritage Act by the City of London in 2000.
