History

The Baptist Church was built in 1904 although there are copies of accounts of a Baptist Church in Burnham from 1673.

In 1712 a High Street public house called the Jews Well was given to the church and licences for worship. In the early 19th century this building was demolished and it was replaced by an octaganal building unknown locally as the round church. By 1903 a larger chapel was required and the current building was erected.
