Full Description

A Wesleyan Methodist chapel was built in 1829 to seat 254. It was enlarged in 1858, but was closed in 1906 when it was replaced by the High Street chapel. It was sold in 1829 and converted into a house. The building is now divided into two seperated properties, a shop and a house. The building is rendered, making it difficult to glean any information about its fabric, but it is of red brick and has a gabled roof. {1}{2}{3}
