The All Saints Mission Room stands on the outskirts of Cuckfield in Brook Street. Although it lacked a graveyard, it served the needs of the small community. Originally known as the Iron School Church, it was inaugurated on Advent Sunday in 1879 by the vicar of Holy Trinity Church, Rev. Francis Mount.
Nearly a century later, after careful consideration, services in the building were discontinued due to its dangerous condition. The dwindling number of users made the cost of repairs unjustifiable. The final service was held in November 1968. Affectionately referred to as the Tin Chapel, it transformed into a picture framers and art gallery after 1968.
