The Friends have met on this site since the first Meeting House was built in 1676 on land bought in 1669. The current building was built in 1813, but unfortunately ceased to be used by the Friends in the late 1990s. The Friends now meet in the Community Centre on Byland Road. The former Meeting House is now the Cosanostra restuarant.
