Relocated whwn the Church closed and became The Rainbow Centre. Honouring their Heroes An Impressive Ceremony at Clarence Street Church (The Home of the Fisherman’s Choir) (Source: Visitor July 16 1919) A service that was not only impressive but sounded a note of triumph, took place in Clarence Street United Methodist Church last Sunday when two beautiful tablets were unveiled to the memory of the fallen and also to those who served in the war. Both tablets are the work and gift of Mr Harry Hargreaves, one recording those who have fallen being in repousse work (ornamental metal work hammered into relief from the reverse side), the other on vellum recording those who had served. There was a large congregation and the unveiling was performed by Mr W J Southern who said it was a great honour to unveil the tablets
