mentions an enlargement in 1902. Closure date is uncertain, but it seems to have
been active in 2010 (link).

2. Howard advises that
this wasn't the first Wesleyan Chapel in the village, as the 1851 Religious
Census mentions an earlier one of 1815. This source says that the earlier
building was used as a school after the later chapel was built. It's likely that
this was the Sunday School which stood opposite the 1856 chapel, but it has been
demolished. TA 269 244. All © Howard Richter (2015).

chapel-of-ease for the adjacent Owlpen Manor. It was replaced in the late
