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.

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.

There was also a Primitive Methodist Chapel, at SS

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.

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.

Golden Green, Kent, possible church. Can you confirm? TQ 637 482. © Geoff Watt. 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. Nos. 1 and 2 Chapel Cottages now stand on the site.

was used for building the present church), but there is a photo of the
churchyard
here (third from last). Former
chapel, which Janet Gimber has advised
was built as Free United Methodist in 1854, later becoming Goulceby
Methodist Church, presumably after unification with the other local Methodist
churches. TF 2546 7940. © Les Needham. The village also had a
Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, on Butt Lane at TF 2552

Primitive Methodist Chapel is noted
here, where it's dated to 1834-1886, but the website has been unable to
locate it. Maps have failed me too, but going round the village on Streetview I
came across an intriguing building about half way along Butt Lane on the western
side, almost hidden by vegetation - could this be the P.M. Chapel, seen on
Streetview in 2009?
Genuki mentions a General Baptist Chapel of
1701 on Goulceby Lane, at TF 2593 7930. Marked as Baptist Chapel (Dis) - i.e.

Great Clifton, Cumbria. A
Wesleyan Methodist Church shows on

survives, it is unidentifiable from Streetview - it must have stood on or near
what is now the driveway in this view from 2011,
but stood closer to the road, perhaps even encroaching on today's pavement. Its My Wesleyan Methodists
entry dates it to 1845. At some point it was replaced by a new chapel
nearby, at NY 0400 2958. Certainly it was in use in the 1980's. It can be seen
in a 2009 Streetview here,
and there are also photos (including the interior)
here. A 2019

pre-existing building, adopted by the congregation between 1895 and 1900, and
vacated by 1925. The building seems to have survived until at least 1975, so
there should be photos out there.

at SH 5280 6007. This source
calls it Moreia Independent Chapel, and dates it to 1829, re-built 1865,

or something similar, as it still shows on mid-20th century O.S. maps.

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? Janet Gimber has
advised that this was a school. Both © Paul E.

(Wesleyan, of circa 1810).

Gwyddelwern, Denbighshire,
St. Beuno, largely of a re-build in 1880 on an ancient
site. Its
CiW entry calls it a former church. SJ 0746 4668. © Peter Morgan (2013).
Grade II* listed.
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).
Gwydir Uchaf, Conwy,
Chapel. It's called Chapel of Holy Trinity on
Coflein,
which dates it to 1673 as a private chapel to the nearby Gwydyr Castle. SH 7948 6093. © 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.

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.
Gypsy Hill, Greater London, Christ Church (1987) on Highland Road, built after a fire destroyed the old church (1862), of which
only the tower survives, now converted to flats. Both © Gerard Doherty (2011).
