Whitefield's Tabernacle, Moorfields, a church at the corner of Tabernacle Street and Leonard Street, London, England, originally a wooden building built by followers of George Whitefield in 1741, replaced by a brick building in 1753, and again rebuilt over a century later. John Wesley preached a sermon "On the death of the Rev Mr George Whitefield" [1] both here and at Whitefield's Tabernacle, Tottenham Court Road in 1770.
It appears from A History of Middlesex that it was replaced in 1907 by a new building in Alexandra Park Road, later known as Alexandra Park Congregational Church and later still as Alexandra Park United Reformed Church. As of 2004 this was being converted into flats [2].
