History of Central United Reformed Church Hove
- In July 1980, two URC church (Cliftonville United Reformed Church and St Cuthberts United Reformed Church) joined to form Central United Reformed Church
- The first Minister of the newly formed Central URC was Rev Brian Stone
- The new church was located in the former Cliftonville building and by November 1986, a new sanctuary located on the first floor of that building was dedicated
- After Rev Brian Stone moved to new pastures, the Church remained without a minister for several years, in a period known as Interregnum
- Rev Peter Elliott was called to minister to us and stayed until he retired. He still remains active in local churches and has continued to lead some of our services.
- Ater a few years without a minister, we have worked with the other churches in the Hove & Portslade Pastorate and together have called Rev Alex Mabbs to lead us.
