The war memorial in the churchyard is listed as

former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, at TF 7189 0581.
It was seen by Streetview in
2009 - zooming-in allows the date-stone for 1875 to be seen. The site of
All Saints is indicated on O.S. maps at TF 7116

Streetview from 2021. O.S.
maps mark Chapel (Site of) north-west of the

Bawdeswell, All Saints (O). As we were driving up, I thought at first glance that this was a Georgian Church. How wrong

A United Free Methodist Chapel once stood on Chapel
Lane (previously Gouch Lane), at TF 9082 1584. Pre-dating a map of 1906, its
Genuki entry
says it was "founded before 1886". It still shows on a map of 1955, but when it
was closed is so far unknown. Its site was well hidden by vegetation when the
Streetview van went by in 2008, but it was
here, somewhere behind the
trees on the right.
Genuki also
lists another chapel, a Wesleyan Reform Chapel, at
TF 9103 1595, and it also provides dates of 1817 to "before 1906". Looking at a
25" map of 1906 this grid reference looks an unlikely place to have had a
chapel, which, even if had been demolished at this time, should surely have had
a road or path leading to its site, but it appears not to have.

Wesleyan Methodist Chapel shows on older O.S. maps, and it was still
active (presumably as Methodist) at least as late as 1950. Evidently demolished,
its site was in use as a parking area when seen by
Streetview in 2009. Another
Methodist Chapel stands on Bailey Street at TF 8179 1507. Not labelled to
denomination, it must be the Primitive Methodist Chapel
mentioned on
Genuki, where it's dated to 1831, "closed by .... 2013". It was seen by
Streetview in 2018. Abbey

Priory Road (according to Google Maps), or on Church Lane, according to its

Grade II* listed. The village had 2 chapels, just yards apart on High
Street, Wesleyan and Primitive Methodist, both demolished. The earlier of the
two was the Wesleyan, of 1821, which stood at
TF 7697 3684. Its site was seen by
Streetview in 2009. The P.M.
stood at
TF 7698 3684, and its site
also seen in 2009. There are several on-line references to the last Methodist
Chapel closing in 2009. This is erroneous, as the houses on both sites are to be
seen on Streetview in 2008, and the lichens on the roof of the house on the site
of the P.M. chapel testify to its having been built considerably before 2008.
Docking's
Wikipedia article mentions a Wesleyan Reform Preaching House west of
the pond by the playing fields. I take this to be the pond centred on TF 7679
3704. No available map shows a chapel here, as far back as one published in
1886, but if it wasn't classified as a church that shouldn't be surprising. Can
you say exactly where it stood?

Chap. at the junction of High Street and
Buddell's Lane, at TF 9407 3972. A
2021 Streetview reveals it
to have been Primitive Methodist, dated 1874. This
source says that there had been a predecessor of 1862, and that it was still
open (presumably as Methodist) in 2015, but had later closed. Less that half a
mile south O.S. maps show Chapel (Remains of)
at TF 9421 3905. This

says that the identification of the remains with a chapel is tentative. There is

Old maps show that the village also had a
Wesleyan Methodist Chapel at one
point, set back slightly from the north side of Church Road at TF 6205 0509. Shown on the 1885-6
O.S. map, it's later indicated as a United Methodist Chapel, but although the
1938-52 map still shows the building, it's no longer labelled, suggesting that
it was closed by then. Its
Genuki entry
calls it Wesleyan Reform, and dates it to 1842 to "before 1952". The building
seen here on a Streetview
from 2009 stands on the site - does anything of the chapel survive?
