A black and white photograph showing the vestibule at Wesley's Chapel, City Road. The monument in the centre commemorates Jabez Bunting (1779-1858).

Jabez Bunting has sometimes been described as the architect of the Wesleyan Methodist Church during the early 1800s. His leadership steered Methodism away from the Anglican Church, but his authoritarian leadership caused a split in Wesleyan Methodism which led many to leave.
