Honley Trinity Methodist/URC Church was formed in 1969 from three separate non-conformist churches in Honley; High Street Methodist, Southgate Methodist and Moorbottom Congregational.
The Congregational church became the home of Trinity church.
The brass plaques come from all three of those churches.
