Background
History
The mosque was originally founded as a prayer centre in a former ambulance station, which was bought back in the mid-1990s. The building adjacent was bought and plans were made to convert the prayer centre into an official purpose-built mosque. For the conversion, £1 million was raised by the local members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.
