Gabalfa, Cardiff (City), Cardiff - see Cardiff (City).
Gaddesby, Leicestershire, St. Luke, and its interior. SK 6898 1305. Both © Aidan McRae Thomson (2012). Three additional interiors - 1, 2, 3, the altar, and three of the tombs and monuments - 1, 2, 3, all © Chris Stafford (2015). Link. Grade I listed. Old maps shows a Chapel at SK 6868 1308, on Chapel Lane. It was Wesleyan, and is dated here "by 1837". It was still active in 1940, but it's closure date is so far obscure. Streetview provides a 2011 view of "Chapel House" built on the site.
Gadfield Elm, Worcestershire, the Chapel (Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, originally United Brethren  - a splinter from the Primitive Methodists). © James Murray. Link.
Gailey, Staffordshire, the former Christ Church (1850), now a pottery studio. Two further views - 1, 2. All © Dennis Harper (2011). Link.
Gainford, Co. Durham, St. Mary, on The Green. Another view. NZ 1697 1668. Both © Alan Blacklock. Another view, carved medieval slabs in the porch, two interior views - 1, 2, and the font, all © Chris Stafford (2015). Link. Grade I listed. Wesleyan Methodist Chapel (dating from 1834) also on The Green. NZ 1697 1676. © Alan Blacklock. St. Osmund (R.C.) on Main Road. Another view. NZ 1718 1698. Both © Alan Blacklock. Interior view, © Mike Forbester. Older maps indicate an Independent/Congregational Chapel on Main Road, at NZ 1712 1689, a little way west of the R.C. Church. It pre-dates a map of 1858, and appears to have gone out of use between 1954 and the mid-1970's. At least a part of it seems to have survived - see the building to the right of the white conservatory in this Streetview of 2009.

Galgorm, Co. Antrim, Green Pastures Evangelical Church, known locally as The Peoples Church. D 072 028. © Gerard Close (2013).
Galhampton, Somerset, the church. Its history can be found on the church website here, but basically what was originally a Congregational Chapel is now an L.E.P. (U.R.C. and CoE). ST 6360 2974. © Chris Kippin (2020).
Galmington, Taunton, Somerset - see Taunton.
Galmpton, Devon, Holy Trinity. Another view. SX 686 404. Both © James Murray.
Galston, East Ayrshire, Parish Church (CoS). Another view. An 1809 build on an ancient site, according to here. NS 500 367. Grade B listed. St. Sophia (R.C., 1885-6) on Bentinck Street clearly echoes the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. Another view. NS 503 365. Link1. Link2. Grade A listed. The former United Presbyterian Church on Wallace Street at NS 5014 3650. The date of closure is at present not known, but it seems to have still been active in 1986, when it shows as Church on the OS map of that year. Grade B listed, which says it was a re-build in 1859, and indeed the 1857 OS map shows a smaller building on the site. All © Martin Richter (2013). Gospel Hall on Glebedykes. NS 5000 3653. © Howard Richter (2014). Mission Hall. NS 4981 3679. © Howard Richter (2014). Howard advises of three additional churches, all now demolished. E.U. Church stood on Chapel Street at NS 4987 3661, and the site (seen here on a 2008 Streetview) is now used for housing and car parking. On a different alignment to the housing, the northern corner of the church stood rather closer to the camera than the house. The Free Church stood on Barmill Road at NS 5025 3672, and survived until fairly recently. It was seen by the Streetview van in 2009. Another Free Church stood at NS 5008 3650, off Glebe Road. It seems to have gone out of use in the later 1950's or 1960's. In this Streetview from 2010, the church was positioned behind the cream-coloured cottage, roughly in line with the white van, long axis parallel to the street.
Galway, Co. Galway.
Gamblesby, Cumbria, the former St. John is now a holiday let (link). NY 6096 3930. © Steve Bulman. Link. Methodist Church (1865). The 1900 25" map labels it as Wesleyan. According to the My Wesleyan Methodists entry, it replaced an earlier chapel on the same site. NY 6096 3946. © Malcolm Minshaw. The same map also shows a Congregational Chapel north of the village at NY 6089 3987. A 2009 Streetview is available here.
Gamlingay, Cambridgeshire, St. Mary the Virgin. Another view. TL 2411 5229. Both © Jim Rushton. Link1. Link2. Grade I listed. For other listed features associated with the church, see here. The former Methodist Chapel on Everton Road was built as Wesleyan in 1883. Although in Cambridgeshire, it served a congregation from Everton, in Bedfordshire. Closed in 1992, it's now in residential use. A useful history. TL 2092 5108. © David Regan (2019). The Baptist Church stands on Stocks Lane. The adjacent Baptist School has a date-stone for 1848. The church itself is of C17 foundation. Another view. TL 2381 5192. Both © Gerard Charmley (2022). Link, and history page. Grade II listed. Another Baptist Chapel is shown on old maps on Mill Street, at TL 2376 5226. A map of 1887 labels it as Zoar Chapel (Particular Baptist). It stood set back from the street, at the rear of the parking area seen here on a Streetview from 2019. A former Primitive Methodist Chapel (now a kindergarten) stands on Green End. TL 2356 5237. It's dated here to 1856, closing on or before 1958. © Gerard Charmley (2022).
Gamlingay Heath, Cambridgeshire, the former "Iron Church", of 1885, now in residential use. According to the Wikipedia entry for the village, it was originally a tin tabernacle (hence the name) built in 1879 as St. Sylvester, and it was closed in the 1980's. TL 2159 5166. © David Regan (2019).
Gamrie, Aberdeenshire,
the former United Free Church of Scotland. NJ 8065 6315. © Martin Briscoe. The Parish Church stands less than a mile to the W.S.W. at NJ 7931 6270. Seen by Streetview in 2021, it's dated here to 1829-30. Link. Category B listed. Its predecessor was St. John, for which see Gardenstown, below.
Gamston, Nottinghamshire, St. Peter. Another view. Both © David Regan (2011). Link.
Ganarew, Herefordshire, St. Swithin, and the churchyard cross. SO 5294 1632. Both © Paul Wood (2003). Link. Grade II listed.
Ganllwyd, Gwynedd, Capel Libanus (Independent). Another apparent case of a conflict between Coflein, which says it was a conversion from a factory before 1851, and the date-stone of 1857. Perhaps the date-stone refers to a complete re-build? Another view. SH 727 244. The former tin tabernacle Mission Hall, now in use as the village hall. SH 7265 2430. All © Howard Richter (2016).

Gardenmore, County Antrim, Presbyterian Church. © Jack Storey, Monaghan Genealogy Specialist. Link.
Gardenstown, Aberdeenshire,
Church of Scotland, dated here to 1889. NJ 8008 6480. © Rev. Donald N. Martin. Link. St. John, at NJ 7911 6445, was the predecessor of Gamrie Parish Church, for which see Gamrie, above. Photos of the ruins can be seen here, where it says it was abandoned in 1830. Link. A Gospel Hall stands on Church Road, at NJ 8000 6474, seen by Streetview in 2021.
Gare Hill, Somerset, the former St. Michael. Two additional views - 1, 2. ST 7799 4023. All © Chris Kippin (2021). The village also has a former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel. It, or its replacement with the same L-shaped footprint, can be seen in a Streetview from 2011.

Garforth, West Yorkshire.
Gargrave, North Yorkshire, St. Andrew. © Bill Henderson.
Gargunnock, Stirling, Church of Scotland (1628, on the site of a medieval church). Two additional views - 1, 2, and the bell-turret. NS 707 943. All © Dennis Harper (2013). Link1. Link2. Link3.
Garnant, Carmarthenshire, Hope Church on Dynevor Road, as seen by Streetview in 2022. SN 6889 1307. Link. Calfaria Baptist Chapel is also on Dynevor Road, and was seen by Streetview in 2021. It has a date-stone for 1906, but its Coflein entry dates it to a re-build in 1882 of a chapel of 1844. The 1" O.S. map of 1960 doesn't show it as a place of worship, so had presumably closed by then. SN 6903 1304.
Christ Church (CiW), off Vicarage Road, as seen (just) by Streetview in 2010. SN 6888 1345. Link. Grade II listed, wherein its consecration is given as 1842.
Garndolbenmaen, Gwynedd, Capel Horeb Particular Baptist Chapel (1866). Another view. SH 497 442. Link. Capel Jerwsalem Calvinistic Methodist Chapel bears dates 1780, 1873 and 1915. Another view. SH 496 437. Link1. Link2. All © Howard Richter (2012).
Garras, Cornwall, the former United Methodist Chapel of 1864. SW 7023 2400. © Paul E. Barnett (2018). The village also has a former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, at SW 7034 2389. In front of it stands a Wesleyan School, of 1895, seen here in a Streetview from 2022. The chapel can just be glimpsed to its right, and an old photo of it can be seen here.
Garreg, Gwynedd, St. Catherine (CiW). Another view. SH 612 417. Both © Howard Richter (2012). Link.

Garrigill, Cumbria, dedicated to St. John. NY 7451 4152. The former Methodist chapel. The 25" 1899 map labels this as Primitive Methodist. Its My Primitive Methodists entry notes a date-stone for 1885, and mentions earlier chapels of 1856-7, and 1825. It says it was closed circa 2006. NY 7457 4117. Both © Steve Bulman. Link. The former Redwing Congregational Chapel. Now semi-derelict, Ken believes it is soon to undergo conversion. NY 7389 4178. © Ken Roddam.

Garstang, Lancashire.
Garswood, Lancashire - see the Ashton-in-Makerfield page.
Garth, Bridgend, St. Mary the Virgin. Coflein dates it to 1891. SS 8638 9040. © Gervase N. E. Charmley. Link. O.S. maps show Ebenezer Chapel (Welsh Independent) off Bridgend Road at SS 8650 9015. Pre-dating the oldest available map of 1899, its Coflein entry dates it to 1868, re-built 1904-11, and says it was derelict by 1998. It remained so in 2022 when the Streetview van took its only image. Another chapel, shown on a 1949 map, stood on Heol Elfed, according to Coflein, which calls it Horeb, but doesn't say what its affiliations were. The O.S. map showing it is small scale, so one has to rely on the Coflein map to locate it. It appears to have been demolished. As far as I can judge, it would have stood somewhere in the view seen here, in a Streetview of 2022.
Garth, Powys, Olewydd Congregational Chapel. SN 964 501. © Mike Berrell.
Garth Row, Cumbria, the former Mission Room (Christian Brethren) on Gurnal Bridge Lane, as seen by the Streetview van in 2009. Another view. On the maps to which I have access, the Mission Room is first so labelled on the edition of 1898, though the same building (or at least one with the same footprint) is shown from the 1860 map. The last map to label it is the edition published in 1956. It now appears to be in residential use. This source provides dates of "by 1858" to 1955. SD 5269 9754.
Garthbeibio, Powys, St. Tydecho. Although today the church is largely of a re-build of 1862, some of the medieval fabric remains. Another view. SH 9855 1189. Both © Paul Wood (2016). Link.
Gartheli, Ceredigion, St. Gartheli (1875). Two interior views - 1, 2. SN 5859 5672. All © Mike Berrell (2012). Link. Coflein.

Garthorpe, Lincolnshire, Wesleyan Chapel. © Dave Hitchborne.
Gartocharn, West Dunbartonshire, Kilmaronock Church (CoS). An 1813 re-build on an ancient site, this church is also known as the "Summer Church", as it is only used in the warmer months. Another view. NS 452 875. Link. Grade B listed. It should be no surprise that there is also a "Winter Church", which is in the village of Gartocharn, at NS 428 863. Built as a Relief Church in 1772, re-built 1911, it shows on the 1862 OS map as United Presbyterian. Another view. Grade B listed - beware the reference therein to this being the Summer Church, an error, which the history confirms. There is mention here (2010) of the proposed disposal of this church, but this news item (scroll to the end) implies the Summer/Winter alternation was still happening in 2013.

Garton, East Riding of Yorkshire, Methodist Church © James Murray.
Garton on the Wolds, East Riding of Yorkshire, St. Michael & All Angels (O). © Bill Henderson. Two additional views - 1, 2, and two very fine Norman doorways - 1, 2. As David says, if you aren't prepared for the interior, it will come as a bit of a surprise! It was painted throughout in the 1850's for Sir Tatton Sykes. Six interior views - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. All © David Regan (2019). Link. Grade I listed. The former Methodist Church, built as Primitive Methodist in 1871. The My Primitive Methodists entry says it closed "probably in the 1950's". © David Regan (2019).

Gateley, Norfolk, St. Helen. The interior, a couple of nice carvings - 1, 2, and the font. TF 9600 2453. All © Chris Stafford (2014). Link1. Link2. Grade I listed. Old maps mark a Primitive Methodist Chapel at TF 9623 2384. The only dating evidence I've found is here, where it says "founded before 1885", and closure date not known. If any of it survives, it will probably be the rear part (the yellow stone or brick) of the left hand building seen in a Streetview of 2008.

Gavinton, Borders, Langton Church. The church website dates it to 1872, on the site of a predecessor of 1798. NT 7668 5221. © Bill McKenzie. Category B listed. Old maps show a Free Church standing to the west of the village, at NT 7648 5208. It survives, converted, and was seen by Streetview in 2011. This source calls it Langton Free Presbyterian Church, and dates it to 1843. Nearby, O.S. maps show a Church (Site of) and a Chapel (Site of). The church, at NT 7624 5253, stands in a former burial ground, near Langton House, and, according to this website it was the Old Parish Church, and perhaps has some scant remains still visible. The chapel, at NT 7572 5271, is dated here to 1680, where it says some foundations remain visible. Neither site is visible on Streetview, and I've been unable to find any photos.
Gawber, South Yorkshire, St. Thomas. © Bill Henderson.

Two additional views - 1, 2, two interior views - 1, 2, and the font, all © David Regan (2018), who advises that Sir George Gilbert Scott was baptised here. Link. Grade II* listed. The Methodist Church (Streetview 2011) is on Main Street, and is labelled on older O.S. maps as Primitive Methodist. This source dates it to 1868. Link.

Gayfield, City of Edinburgh - see City of Edinburgh.
Gayhurst, Buckinghamshire, St. Peter. One of Simon Jenkin's "Thousand Best Churches", David was disappointed that it was locked, and the signage on the approach was designed to discourage visits. Another view. SP 8465 4625. Both © David Regan (2017). Link. Grade I listed.
Gayle, North Yorkshire, Methodist Church (1833, altered 1879). Two additional views - 1, 2. SD 870 893. All © Howard Richter (2015). Link1. Link2. The former Inghamite/Sandemanian Chapel. According to the grade II listing, it dates from circa 1755, and has not been used as a chapel for a long time - indeed possibly before 1856, when the building is shown on the 6" map of that date, but it isn't marked as a chapel or place of worship. It's now the Village Institute. Two further views - 1, 2. SD 872 893. All © Howard Richter (2014). Link1 - see the Beyond London section. Link2.

Gayton le Marsh, Lincolnshire, the surviving churchyard of St. George. Despite only having been demolished in 1971, neither David or I have been able to find a photo on the net. The church was some distance from the local roads, and I haven't been able to convince myself that the site of the church is visible on Streetview either, because of intervening houses and hedges. TF 4250 8413. Link. The village also has a former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, at TF 4308 8471. It appears to now be in residential use. This source provides dates of 1894-1987. It also mentions two predecessors, of 1809 and 1837. The latter of these is this building at TF 4287 8445. When the new Chapel was built, this one became the Sunday School. I've not been able to identify the older chapel's location. All © David Regan (2020).

The 25" O.S. map of 1892-1914 shows a Primitive Methodist Chapel north of the village at TF 7433 1893. It's dated here to 1902, and was described as derelict in 1987. It's labelled as Methodist Chapel (disused) on a map of 1980-1. If it survives, it's completely overgrown in scrubby woodland, and not visible from the road. It stands/stood somewhere among the trees on the right in this Streeview from 2009.

Independent Chapel. Its predecessor (ruinous) stands adjacent. SH 9389 4472. Both © Gervase N. E. Charmley (2011). Coflein makes no mention of the predecessor, however, the supplied dates (1845, re-built 1864) don't tally with the date-stone (1899) visible on the 2022 Streetview, so perhaps these dates are for the earlier chapel.

Map evidence shows it was built between 1901 and 1919. Its Coflein entry calls it Tabernacl Independent Chapel, and says it was closed "by 1997", but I suspect several decades earlier, as it isn't labelled as a place of worship on a map of 1965.

Charmley. There was also a Primitive Methodist Chapel, at SS 9835 8973. The houses standing on the site were seen by Streetview in 2022. Coflein seems to be in error regarding this chapel. It shows on a map, and gives a grid reference for, a P.M. Chapel at the site of Bethel Wesleyan, dating it to 1875. However, no maps prior to mid 20th century shows a place of worship here. I suspect that the date may be applicable to the P.M. Chapel in this entry - it was certainly built prior to 1885. The 6" map of 1900 shows a Chapel at SS9831 8963, which the 25" map of 1919 labels as S.A. Barracks. The house on its site was seen by Streetview in 2022. Capel Bryn-Seion (Independent) is shown on the map of 1900, a little way north of St. Barnabas, at SS 9831 8955. Demolished at some point before the first Streetview visit in 2008, the most recent visit in 2022 appears to show that the site was about to be re-developed.

Glanton, Northumberland, St. Andrew, Anglican and U.R.C. NU 069 145. It dates to before 1895, when it is shown on an old map as Presbyterian Chapel (Scotch). On a visit in 2008, I could only find this one church, despite the OS map showing two. Also, Pevsner (revised edition, 2001) lists only the U.R.C. church, originally Presbyterian, but doesn't give it a dedication. GENUKI lists a St. Peter, but this Glanton newsletter from 2005 mentions the up-coming closure of this church. Presumably St. Peter has been demolished, and the now combined CoE and U.R.C. was re-named St. Andrew after 2005. Unless you know better.....   © Steve Bulman. Howard Richter has been doing some investigation, and advises that St. Peter appears to have been built as a Mission Room, in ca. 1896 (absent from 1895 map, present on 1897 version), at grid ref. NU 0713 1447. The 1976 map shows this as "St. Peter's Church (CofE)", and it still shows on the 1981-2 map. Strangely, the current on-line Ordnance Survey map still shows a church at this grid ref. You can also use this to orient the Google Earth aerial image to see what might be the church foundations.

Howard Richter has been researching this building, and advises that it is St. Mary's Mission Church, from St. Mary in Hadlow, about 2 miles away, dedicated in 1919. According to their website, the church still holds services, and also serves as a community hall. The Mission was preceded in the village by a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, which stood at about TQ 638 483. This shows on old maps from the 1908 edition, but not on the earlier 1897/8. It appears to have still been in use in 1961, but is not named, though still standing, and so presumably no longer in use as a church, on the 1961/2 edition. It was demolished before the 1983 map.

Gulval, Cornwall,
St. Gudwal on Posses Lane. SW 4847 3176. From an old postcard (franked 1905) in Steve Bulman's Collection. A modern view, © Paul E. Barnett (2014). Previously in the "Unknown" section, this old family photograph shows Helen Howes' relative Isabella Gee in a churchyard. My appreciation to Greg Mishevski for the identification, who also advises that the spelling of the Saint has been at various times Gudwal, Gulval and Gulwal. Link. Grade II* listed. The lych-gate is also listed, as grade II. Methodist Church on Trevarrack Road and Green Lane. It's dated here to 1884, as Wesleyan, with closure circa 2004. SW 479 317. © David Gallimore. Another view, © Paul E. Barnett (2014). Grade II listed. Its Wesleyan predecessor of 1822 stands a short distance away on Trevarrack Road. Converted, it's now called Wesley Villa (2023 Streetview). SW 4792 3171. The source already given says that the Methodist congregation now meets in the village hall, the old Sunday School (2023 Streetview), which stands on School Lane at SW 4819 3173. I haven't been able to find a website however, and the village hall website makes no mention of Methodist services, so the congregation may have folded.

Gunville, Isle of Wight, Carisbrooke & Gunville Methodist Church, on Gunville Road, as seen by Streetview in 2019. An old postcard of it is labelled with the caption "opened July 11th, 1907". SZ 4802 8903. Link. Older O.S. maps show Bethel Bible Christian Chapel very close to the later Methodist Church, at SZ 4802 8902. I suspect that what is today the Sunday School is the earlier chapel. It has a date-stone for 1848, the "Sunday School" above the date must be a later addition. 2015 Streetview.

Guyhirn, Cambridgeshire,
the redundant St. Mary Magdalene. TL 3975 0329. © George Weston. Link, which dates it to 1878, by G.G. Scott, and says it was in a deteriorating state when visited. Guyhirn Chapel (1660) on High Road, was built as a chapel-of-ease to St. Mary in Wisbech. Now redundant and in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. TF 4031 0402. Older O.S. maps label it as a Mort. Chap. © Richard Roberts (2015). Link (with an interior photo). There used to be a Primitive Methodist Chapel, shown on O.S. maps at TL 4013 0378. It's dated here to 1868, and has a link to a photo of the village hall which also shows the chapel. It says it was still active in 1973, but the date of closure and demolition is now known. Housing (seen by Streetview in 2009) now stands on the site. Could the village hall (seen in 2009) be the Sunday School mentioned on the same webpage already referred to - note the typical Methodist foundation stones.
Guy's Head, Lincolnshire, Methodist Church of 1936, sits at about a mile N.W. of the village. TF 4764 2687. © David Regan (2020). Link. The site of the demolished St. Philip, which now lies in the corner of a field, as seen on a 2010 Streetview. TF 4877 2581. Built before 1869 (Genuki), it disappears from O.S. maps by 1952.

Gwinear, Cornwall,
St. Gwinear. Another view. SW 5950 3737. Both © Carole Sarvis. Link. Grade I listed. For related listed features, see here. Janet Gimber has advised that the former church (1893), converted to residential use, was a school. SW 5985 3739. © Paul E. Barnett (2015). Old maps show a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel at the east end of the village, at SW 5990 3736. Pre-dating a map of 1888, it had been closed and demolished by the mid-20th century. It stood on the opposite side of the road from the garden shed seen in a Streetview from 2023.
Gwithian, Cornwall,
St. Gothian. SW 5864 4126. Link. Grade II* listed. The lych-gate is also listed as grade II. Standing adjacent is this building, perhaps a mortuary chapel or church hall - can you identify it?

A churchyard table tomb is also listed, as grade II. Moriah Chapel at the northern end of the village. Coflein dates it to 1824, with re-builds in 1851 and 1897, and says it was was still active in 1995. SJ 0762 4695. © Peter Morgan (2013). Wesleyan Methodist Chapel is dated 1870. Coflein says 1870 was a re-build, the chapel having first been built in 1806 and re-built in 1832. SJ 0749 4659. © Peter Morgan (2013).

Gwynfryn, Wrexham, St. David. Wesleyan Chapel. Both © Martin Briscoe.
Gwytherin, Conwy, the former St. Winifred. Streetview only managed a distant view of the churchyard, some photos of the church (exterior and interior) can be seen here (the history page is also useful). More exterior photos can be seen on the grade II listing. SH 8767 6146. Coflein entry. Siloh Welsh Presbyterian Chapel (1815, re-built 1855). It can be seen on a 2009 Streetview here. SH 8768 6175. Coflein entry. About a mile and a half north-east stands Capel Cae'r Graig (Welsh Presbyterian), at SH 8902 6352. 2009 Streetview. Coflein entry. Grade II listed. Old maps from between the wars show a Sunday School in an isolated position over a mile N.W. of the village, at circa SH 8606 6229. Some maps name the building as Tyn-y-Pant. From an inspection of more recent maps, and satellite images, Howard Richter suspects that the building no longer exists, but it stood among the trees in the background of this 2011 Streetview.
Gyffin, Conwy, St. Benedict on Henryd Road, is virtually invisible to Streetview, but there's a photo on the church website, and there are more on its grade I listing. SH 7764 7694. Coflein. For related listed features, see here. Siloh Methodist Chapel on Llanrwst Road. Its Coflein entry dates it to 1901, closing "by 1995". SH 77839 7693. © Mike Berrell. The former Soar Methodist Chapel (2009 Streetview) on New Street is dated by Coflein to 1905. SH 7779 7686. A map of 1901 shows a Meth. Chap. on Henryd Road at SH 7771 7690. Streetview saw the house on the site in 2014 - it isn't obvious whether anything survives of the chapel. As Coflein makes no mention of it, one wonders if this might be a rare error on the part of the Ordnance Survey.
