Full Description

Former Primitive Methodist chapel at Kirton End, depicted on the 2nd edition 25" Ordnance Survey County Series map. {1} The former chapel was visited in 2008. It was at that time being used as a garden outbuilding and was covered in ivy, obscuring many of the features. It is constructed from red brick, though the street frontage may be a later addition. The eaves cornices have dentil brickwork. The windows are variously flat-headed and segmental-headed, though the rear elevation appears to have been refenestrated. There is a tablet above the door which reads 'Primitive Methodist Chapel. Built 1859. Ebenezer'. {2} The chapel was built in 1859, but closed in 1932, following the union of the Methodist Church. It was converted to be used as a private residence in 2016. {3}{4}
