Methodist Church on Butterton Lane, built as Primitive Methodist in 1897. It evidently wasn't the first chapel on the site, as a map of 1882, surveyed in 1873/4 shows a P.M. Chapel at the same position - it's dated here to 1853. SJ 7634 5436. © Peter Morgan (2015). This source advises that the Methodist Church was demolished in 2017 after it was found to be unsafe.

Moravian Church (1751) on The Settlement. SK 4213 3618. © David Regan (2021). Link. Grade II* listed. Other related listings can be found here. A Primitive Methodist Chapel once stood on the east side of Green Lane. It preceded a map of 1900, and was still active as Ockbrook Methodist Church into the 1970's at least. SK 4229 3634. Its site can be seen in a Streetview from 2019. An earlier P.M. chapel is shown on a map of 1881, but it's not clear to which building the label should be applied. It stood at the northern end of Wesley Lane at circa SK 422 362. I've not been able to establish whether it survives, or find a photo, and the Streetview camera hasn't visited. Given the street name, it's at least possible that this was originally the Wesleyan Chapel mentioned on Genuki as having been built in 1808. David Regan has advised of this website that shows that my assumption was correct - this was originally a Wesleyan Chapel, and the reasons for their having to give it up can be read under the heading "Ockbrook 1871".
Ockham, Surrey, All Saints. Barbara advises that the seven-lancet window is very unusual, and is thought to have been taken from the nearby Newark Priory after the dissolution. TQ 066 565. © Barbara Barklem.

Two churchyard monuments have their own listings - they can be found here. Holy Ascension, as seen by Streetview in 2023. SP 2296 2591. Link, which says it was consecrated in 1852. Grade II listed. Old maps show a Congregational Chapel in Upper Oddington, at SP 2218 2571. It pre-dates a map of 1885, and seems to have gone out of use by 1922. The building on the site today can just be glimpsed at the end of the drive here, in a Streetview from 2009. Does anything of the chapel survive? The village also had a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel. It's dated here (where there is an old photo) to 1903, disused by 1937 and subsequently converted to residential use. It was seen by Streetview in 2023. SP 2265 2573.

Grade I listed. The former Baptist Chapel, as seen by Streetview in 2018. It has a date-stone for (I think) 1931, but this must relate to a re-build or enlargement (or perhaps a refurbishment), as it shows on a map of 1889, surveyed two years earlier. TL 2187 6604.

Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, which was perhaps previously a chapel - can you confirm? An inscribed foundation stone bears the date 1895. My appreciation to Janet Gimber who has advised that this was Philadelphia Baptist Chapel. Before the Witnesses, took over, the building spent some time as a "club", according to an old map.

Okeford Fitzpaine, Dorset, St. Andrew. ST 8073 1081. © Chris Kippin. Link. Grade II* listed. There's also a grade II listed table tomb. The village also has a former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel (it's dated 1830) on Lower Street at ST 8039 1109. It was seen by Streetview in 2023. This source says it was converted in 1991. The Primitive's were here too, just east of St. Andrew, on Pound Lane at ST 8079 1078. Seen by Streetview in 2011 when it appeared to be in poor condition, it's dated here to 1859, where it reports that it was later renovated (there are photos).

Old Kea, Cornwall, the church (1862). Note the large granite stone, which was found in the foundations of the medieval church when it was being demolished.

Overseal, Derbyshire, St. Matthew. SK 2948 1547. © David Regan (2017). Link1. Link2. Grade II listed. The Baptist Church on Burton Road. It stands on the site of an earlier chapel, of 1898. SK 2942 1544. © Richard Roberts (2023). An even earlier General Baptist Chapel shows on a map of 1884 a little way further north, at SK 2934 1560. Its site was seen by Streetview in 2023. Link. The same map also shows a Primitive Methodist Chapel at Gorsey Lees, at SK 3006 1539. It doesn't show on a map of 1901. Does anything survive of it? Another P.M. Chapel shows on the 1901 map on Woodville Road, at SK 3000 1572. It's presumably this chapel of which there is an interior photo from 1912 here. The buildings on the site today can be seen on a Streetview from 2023. Genuki also lists a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, of 1860 re-built 1895, but I haven't been able to locate it. Could the latter P.M. chapel have changed hands at some point?
Overstone, Northamptonshire, St. Nicholas (1807, C). Another view. Both © David Regan (2016). Link. Grade II listed.
Overstrand, Norfolk, St. Martin (O). Pevsner explains that the church was ruinous by the 18th century. It was replaced by Christ Church in 1867, but that has since been demolished. St. Martin was rebuilt and restored in the years running up to WWI. Two interior views - 1, 2, piscina, water stoop, and the font. TG 240 407. Link. Grade II* listed. Christ Church, with the ruinous St. Martin behind, can be seen here in 1896. Another photo of 1922 shows a similar view following the restoration of St. Martin. Christ Church shows on a map of 1938-50, but had been demolished by the time of the 1957 edition. A photo of it can be seen here, dated "circa 1955", so we can say that it was demolished in the mid-1950's.  Methodist Church (1898, Edwin Lutyens). TG 248 407. Link1. Link2. Grade II listed.

Overton, Hampshire, St. Mary. SU 5146 4997. © Chris Kippin. Link. Grade II* listed. The Methodist Church on Winchester Street was originally an Independent/Congregational Chapel, pre-dating a map of 1896. It was due to close in May 2022. SU 5151 4956. © Chris Kippin (2022). Link. Older O.S. maps show a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel off High Street, presumably the predecessor of the current Methodist Church. It was set further back from the street than the shop currently occupying the site. If any of it survives, it can (just) be seen on the right-hand side of the alleyway seen in a Streetview from 2016. The National Archives references documents pertaining to this chapel for the years 1891-1966. SU 5143 4966. This source has photos of two private Methodist Chapels, which stand to the rear of High Street, behind what is currently Overton Gallery. It also suggests that there was another one nearby. Circa SU 514 497. My thanks to Chris Kippin and David Holmes for clarifications regarding the nonconformist chapels of Overton.

Oving, Buckinghamshire, All Saints, on Church Road. Another view. SP 7824 2137. Both © David Regan (2019). Link. Grade II* listed. The Old Chapel is a house on Bowling Alley, a former Primitive Methodist Chapel (Streetview 2011). This source dates it to 1869, and says that it had a predecessor of 1849. Whether it was on the same site or not isn't specified. SP 7868 2160.

A little way north of the village, at Moigne Court, O.S. maps mark Chapel (Site of), at SY 7707 8573. This source is hesitant about whether there was a chapel here. Its supposed site hasn't been seen by Streetview.

Owlpen, Gloucestershire, Holy Cross Church. Another view, three interiors - 1, 2, 3, the pulpit and the font, two examples of the good stained glass in the church - 1, 2, and of the mosaic and tile work - 1, 2. The medieval church was a simple chapel-of-ease for the adjacent Owlpen Manor. It was replaced in the late 1820's, and has had alterations and additions since then, most notably with a Byzantine-style mosaic added in the 1880's. All that remains from the original chapel is the font. ST 79984 98402. All © Carole Sage (2016). Link. Grade II listed.

Grade I listed. The former Primitive Methodist Chapel. Its My Primitive Methodists entry dates it to 1903, the successor to one of 1882. Although it doesn't specify if they were on the same site, old maps indicate that they were. TF 0013 8752. © David Regan (2020).

Owthorne (near Withernsea), East Riding of Yorkshire, the site of St. Matthew, on Queen Street and Hubert Street, as seen by Streetview in 2025. It must surely be the same church as seen here (scroll down to St. Mathew's Chapel), though it says it was on Waxholme Road. It's dated to no later than 1857 to 1935 (when it was replaced by St. Matthew in Withernsea), subsequently used as a church hall, and demolished in 1971. TA 3396 2838. © James Murray. Close to St. Matthew on North Gate is the site (2025 Streetview) of a vanished Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, shown on a map of 1855. It had gone out of use no later than 1908. TA 3401 2840. O.S. maps also show St. Peter's Church (Site of) at TA 3424 2835. Now beneath the sea, it was presumably the medieval church for the village. There's an illustration here of Owthorne Church from 1800, surely this is St. Peter. It says it was washed away in 1816.
Owthorpe, Nottinghamshire, St. Margaret. Two further views - 1, 2. All © David Regan (2012). Link1. Link2. Grade II* listed. Previously in the Unknown section, this old family photograph in Michael Badger's Collection dates from circa 1925, and was thought to possibly be within day-trip distance of Kinoulton in Nottinghamshire. And so it proved. The identification was by Tony Preston.

Oxborough, Norfolk, St. John the Evangelist, which sits within the grounds of Oxborough Hall. It sticks in the mind because of the damage caused by the collapse of the spire in 1949, which destroyed the nave, and for the fortuitous survival of the Bedingfield Chapel, with its remarkable terracotta screen. Another view. Two interior views - 1, 2, and a monument. TF 7439 0145. Link. Video tour. Grade I listed.
