The first hundred years of Methodism were celebrated with the creation of a great hall for meetings and prayer in Bishopsgate. It became known as the 'Centenary Hall' and is depicted on the reverse of this medal. Like many early Methodist medals, the obverse depicts John Wesley, founder of (Wesleyan) Methodism.
