Dundas St. Centre United Church began in 1846 with a small group of Methodists meeting for prayer in a house on Adelaide Street. In 1860 they secured financial aid from the Methodists of what is now Metropolitan United Church to build their own sanctuary.

            Land was purchased on the corner of Adelaide and King Street to build a church with accommodation for 300 people. The church was completed and sold by the Methodists to the Anglicans and then the Baptist. The Baptists moved the church to King Street and renamed it.

            1869 an area was purchased on Dundas Street, it was planned to be a Gothic-style building. The Wesleyan Methodist Church was dedicated on April 3, 1870, and it was renamed Dundas Street Centre Methodist Church In 1876.

            The Dundas Street church burned down on February 13, 1895. It was replaced by the modern redbrick Romanesque building two years later with a Sunday School Auditorium being added in October 1895.  Further renovations including expansions were done between 1949-1963. The church became known for its beautiful Victorian stained glass windows, painted dome, and a 1930’s pipe organ.

            In 1925 the church combined Methodists, Presbyterians, and Congregationalists to become a United Church. Today the building is recognized in London for being a local heritage site and an important part of the religious community.
