St Mary's School

Stoney Street Chapel was located on Plumptre Place, just off Stoney Street in Nottingham. The congregation formed from the Nottingham General Baptists in 1775. Initially from 1783, the congregation was based in the Methodist Tabernacle, but they built a new chapel in 1799. In 1846, three friends established a new congregation in Sherwood, and this later developed to form Carrington Baptist Church, Nottingham.

In 1817 a disruption took place which split the church and caused a scandal. A young minister named Catton was engaged for a trial period. He was accused of indiscretion toward a woman. Rumours of the incident spread. They were denied and the congregation took sides. The church trustees dismissed Catton and advised the minister, Robert Smith, to take possession of the church. On 3 August 1817 the attempt was resisted by force, Smith withdrew from the church, and a third of its members went with him to found Broad Street Baptist Church.
