Location
The Swedish or Scandanavian church was on the corner of Middleton Road and Clarence Road and opened in 1885. It was the oldest Swedish Mission church in the world. In 1955 it was demolished, the congregation moved to Middlesbrough and although another Swedish Church was planned for the town, it was never built.
