May 2025 - Chapel Hill Wesleyan Methodist chapel

A house in Chapel Hill was licensed for worship in 1797. The first chapel was built in 1817. This building was replaced on the same site in 1843. A third chapel, again on the same site, opened on 18 April 1904.

The last service took place on 30 June 1996 by which time membership had fallen to six. The building has now been converted to residential use.
