Sir John Weld


Sir John Weld was a London merchant who in 1610 bought Arnolds, the estate which gave its name to Arnos Grove and on which Arnos Grove house was later built.
He founded the Weld Chapel on 24 May 1615 in what is now Waterfall Road, Southgate. It was replaced by Christ Church in 1862.
His son was also Sir John Weld, member of Parliament for Much Wenlock.
