Soho Hill

I am confused - where does St Silas Mission fit in to the picture?

I don't know the area but have done some digging via planning sites and directories..

The articles refer to a Congregational Church which was at Soho Hill (100)
But ... according to a google search St Silas Church was somewhere else .
1940 directory

St Silas Mission Hall was another property.

Perhaps someone (Lyn) can enlighten me.
