History

It was built in 1841 by the architect Edward Blore who presented his designs, in various drafts, for approval by Rev. Derwent Coleridge, the first principal,[1] as the chapel of St. Mark's College, Chelsea, established by the charity renamed the National Society for Promoting Religious Education. The college soon specialised in teaching of education, arts and other areas and later moved to Devon to become the University of St Mark & St John also known as Plymouth Marjon University.

Conversion into two houses

As of 2017, the chapel is being redeveloped to create two houses, and has been renamed 1 and 2 The King's Chapel.[2]
