Full Description
The chapel is identified as a Primitive Methodist chapel on the 1905 Ordnance Survey County Series map. The building is of red brick and has a gabled roof with decorative ridge tiles. It has been refenestrated. From the fabric of the building (particularly the machine-made brick) it seems likely that it was built in the latter half of the 19th century, and given that the other nearby Methodist chapel is still in use, it seems reasonable that it closed in 1932-3, when the Methodist Churches were united. The building is now in use as a house. {1}{2}
