This navvy mission room is thought to have been photographed
at the hutted camp near Flecknoe which was erected by Thomas Oliver & Son
to house some of the navvies at work on Contract No.4 of the GC's Main Line
(Rugby to Woodford). Within these functional premises, navvies and their
families could attend readings, services and Sunday School, organised by the
Navvy Mission Society and conducted by a lay preacher.
