Full Description
Louth United Methodist Free Chapel was built in 1868, at a cost of £200, with seating for 180. It was built after the nearby earlier Wesleyan Methodist chapel of 1849 was converted to a school in 1860 (see MLI99209). The chapel was closed and sold in 1975, subsequently being used as a warehouse before being converted into a house in 2003. The building is of red brick and has a hipped pantile roof. It has yellow brick pilasters, a plinth and cogging under the eaves, and rubbed yellow brick window arches. {1}{2}{3}
