United Presbyterian Church (originally a Relief
Church, of 1788), as seen by Streetview in 2023. It stood on North Back Street

a sort of stretched octagon. A map of 1956, revised in 1946, show that it had
been demolished by then. NS 9110 9197. A little way south of the town is a
property called Chapelhill, and to its south is Chapel Well. This

further. The grid ref. points to the middle of the field seen in a
