Owing to a mistake by the original builder, the chapel was built smaller than intended. The gallery was added to provide additional seating for the congregation, and it is now believed to be the smallest chapel in England with a three sided balcony. Originally shared between the Baptists and the Primitive Methodists, it became solely Baptist in 1899.  Mike wishes to record his appreciation to the Revd. David Hughes for showing him round Hacconby, Dyke and New Day (at Morton) chapels. TF 106 254. All © Mike Berrell (2011). Link. Grade II listed - link.

Another view, the altar, and a monument, all © Chris Stafford (2015). Link. Grade I listed. The Baptist Church, on Station Road and The Green is dated here to 1905. TL 4639 7551. © David Regan (2018). This was presumably successor to the Baptist Chapel, shown on older maps on Millyard, off The Green at TL 4630 7550. It pre-dates a map of 1887-8, labelled as Baptist Chapel (General), and the latest map to show it is from 1958-9. An edition from 1974-6 has it as Hall. Since demolished, it stood in the car park seen here in a Streetview from 2014. The village has a Methodist Church on High Street, at TL 4635 7542. Old maps label it as Wesleyan. Its Genuki entry only dates it to a restoration of 1891, but it pre-dates a map of 1887-8. Link.

Only a small tower survives, seen by Streetview in 2020. PoWiS dates it (presumably incorrectly, unless the date refers to a re-build) to 1860. The former St. John (2022 Streetview) on Newton Port and Fortune Avenue. According to its PoWiS entry, it's now used as a church hall. NT 5147 7408. Category B listed - dates it to 1838. On the 1855 map, immediately south-east of St. John, was St. John's Free Church, at NT 5149 7408. By the time of a map of 1895 it was disused. Whether the building on its site (2022 Streetview) is a conversion or a later building is unclear.

It was seen by Streetview in 2009, and is dated here to 1830. Old maps show a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel near the Baptist Chapel, at TQ 6353 4980. The house which stands on the site today has a date-stone. Unfortunately I can't read it on Streetview (2019), so I don't know if it's from the chapel. This source dates it to 1899-1956.

Hagworthingham, Lincolnshire, Holy Trinity. TF 3439 6923. © Dave Hitchborne. The grade II* listing describes a church which has had more than its fair share of misfortune over the centuries. The earliest fabric is of C11 and C12, and it had a restoration in the 14th. So far so good. The clerestory was destroyed, also in the 14th century - perhaps as part of the restoration, though the listing doesn't specify. Another restoration took place in 1859 (heavily restored, it says). The most recent insult was the collapse of the tower, as recently as 1972, and the lowest courses can be seen here, © David Regan (2016). Photos of the church as it was before the collapse is available here and here. Two additional views - 1, 2, the interior, and the font, all © David Regan (2019). The former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel on Church Lane. It's dated here to 1839-1968 and was subsequently converted to residential use. TF 3444 6945. © David Regan (2021). The village also had a Primitive Methodist Chapel on High Street at TF 3475 6959. Its My Primitive Methodists entry dates it to 1836 to "around 1958" with subsequent demolition. Its site can be seen on a Streetview from 2008 - it stood next to the road, its frontage at what is now the hedge-line.

O.S. maps show a Baptist Chapel set back from the north side of High Street, at TL 1635 6223. It -re-dates a map of 1901 and was still shown as active on one of 1968. It, or perhaps a predecessor, is dated here to 1757. It stood roughly where where the shed is in a 2009 Streetview.

Hallatrow, Somerset, Friends' Meeting House and burial ground, at the junction of Wells Road and Harts Lane. Janet advises that there is no obvious sign of the burial ground, and whether the building that was the one used by the Friends is the current one is also unknown. It was in use from the 17th century. Standing opposite on Wells Road is the site of the former Gospel Hall, which burned down in 1962. The present building has a churchy look about it, but whether it is used as such, or was a residential re-build reflecting the sites history is unknown. Both © Janet Gimber (2016).

The present building was built 1897-1905, and damaged during WWII. The congregation merged with that of Christ Church in Tottenham in 1977, and St. John was declared redundant in the following year. The Greek Orthodox Church took over in 1983, and the church has been extensively decorated, which (in part) is the reason for it's grade II* listing.

Grade II* listed. The village also had at one time a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel on Chapel Lane, at SK 9711 6231. The 2012 Streetview reveals a building on the correct orientation, and brickwork consistent with a C19 Methodist chapel. The Genuki entry for the village provides dates of 1846-1993. It's a sufficiently recent closure date to hope that there may be photos out there. Genuki also lists two other Methodist Chapels - a Primitive Methodist and a United Free Methodist. The location of the Primitive Methodist is not known (at least on the Genuki or My Primitive Methodists websites), but it's dates are 1857 - circa 1875. It was preceded by a meeting in another (also unidentified) building from 1829. The United Free Methodist is also un-located by Genuki, and it had dates of 1857 - 1934. This pdf document identifies a workshop (building #10) on Blacksmith Lane (SK 9714 6247) as a former Methodist Chapel. It suggests a date of the late 19th century, which would imply that it is most likely the former United Methodist building. It can be seen on a 2012 Streetview here.

It stood just a few yards from the junction. Link. The Wesleyans had a presence too. Their chapel survived as the Methodist Church until 2020, and stands on Church Street. It's evidently a re-build on the site of the original building, as its appearance and larger footprint on old maps testifies. A photo of the old chapel used to be available here, where it was dated to 1849, but the website is no longer available. NZ 3734 4308. St. James Christian Spiritualist Church stood at NZ 3729 4243 on Mazine Terrace. Built by 1939, it survived until at least 1991. Given its decades-long existence, it's surprising that I can find no on-line references to it. Demolished, it has been reverted to grass, as the Streetview of 2008 shows.

And in 2018, Howard Richter has advised that it has been sold for "Community use or re-development potential". The former Bethel Chapel (1815), now a pottery, but it was for sale in 2008 (and in 2018, Howard Richter noticed that it was for sale again). It was, in turn, Independent, Congregational and U.R.C.

Its site was seen by Streetview in 2022. The source just referenced also mentions the Magdalen Gate Baptist Chapel (on Magdalen Gate) at TA 1893 2873. Dating to 1801, it was soon taken over by Methodists, who left in 1818 when the new Wesleyan Chapel was opened. It survives, and was seen by Streetview in 2022. O.S. maps show, on a site between Sherriff Highway and Middle Lane, St. James's Church (Site of), at TA 1878 2834. It says here that it was disused by the 15th century. Another source says that "the foundations of which were visible until the last century", presumably meaning the 19th century, as a map of 1855 shows it as St. James's Church (Remains of), subsequent ones only as  (Site of).

Hevingham, Norfolk, St. Mary the Virgin and St. Botolph, which stands a little way north of the village. Its grade I listing has it as "mainly C14". An interior view, and a gargoyle. TG 2012 2231. All © Chris Emms (2009). Another view, the porch, and the font, all © Chris Stafford (2012). Link1. Link2. There was a Mission Church in an isolated position west of the church at TG 1872 2200. The first map to show it is an edition of 1906, where it's shown as Mission Room, and the latest is 1957, after which is must have been demolished. Genuki mentions a reference to it in a directory of 1896. It stood in what is now the corner of the field seen here in a 2011 Streetview. A Primitive Methodist Chapel is located on old maps on Westgate Green at TG 1936 2107. Its Genuki entry provides dates of 1838 to "before 1975". Whether anything survives of the chapel is uncertain, but the building on the site today occupies the same footprint, and can be seen in a 2011 Streetview. Further east off The Street stands Hevingham Gospel Hall, at TG 1992 2106. It's marked on old maps as United Free Methodist, and pre-dates an edition of 1882-6. It was labelled as Meth Ch. in 1957, and Gospel Hall on a map of 1973-5. Its roof can be glimpsed (above the Landrover) in a Streetview from 2016. The Wesleyans had a chapel at Buxton Heath, at TG 1849 2166. Genuki dates it to 1833 to "before 1975". Now demolished, it stood along the line of scrub on the right-hand side of the road as seen in a Streetview from 2009.

A building at the north-west corner of the green has to be a strong candidate for this - seen here by Streetview in 2008. If this is the right building, it's at TL 4392 6369. O.S. maps mark St. Etheldreda's Church (Site of) at TL 4344 6407. A detailed history can be found here, where it says that earthworks were still visible in 1986.
