Full Description

South Willingham Wesleyan Methodist chapel was built in 1832 to seat 150. The chapel was enlarged in 1877, but the number of seats went down to 140. A schoolroom, costing £213, was added in 1903. The chapel closed in 1972 and was subsequently converted into a house. The building is of red brick and has a hipped roof on the south elevation, and a gable end on the north elevation, which seems to be part of the 1877 extension. The gable is raised with stone coping, a finial and there are pilasters to the corners. {1}{2}{3}{4}
