Grade I listed. A Baptist Chapel stands
set back from Church Street, at SP 7476 2024. It can be seen in a
Streetview from 2011, and it
pre-dates a map of 1883. Link.
A Primitive Methodist Chapel is also shown on the
same map, on Lower Street at SP 7342 2011. Now The Old Chapel, it was
seen by Streetview in 2011.
It was still active into the 1950's at least.

time". HU 4285 3547. © Tim Flitcroft (2012). After the previous church closed,
what had been a Free Church (so
named on a map of 1901) was used by the CoS, but that too closed and the
building is now in residential use.

Grade II listed, wherein it's dated to 1872-4. The churchyard walls,
railings and war memorial share a
grade II listing.
There are some scant remains of the
medieval church towards the southern end of the
village, at SK 3326 4013. Its
grade II listing describes it as essentially an end wall, covered in ivy. It
stands within an old graveyard, access to which I think will be along the path
seen in this Streetview
from 2023. An old illustration and old photo can be seen
here. The former
Wesleyan Methodist Chapel is dated 1859. Also on Church Road, it's now in secular use.

Quarrington Hill, Co.
Durham, the site of the demolished St. Paul, as seen by the Streetview van in
2009. A photo of the church is available
here - it also supplies
dates of 1868-1991. Demolition (for subsidence) followed two years later. NZ
3347 3791. This
source mentions "St. Paul's Worship Centre in
Quarrington Hill", which we must assume was the successor of the church. The
last service was held in 1999. I haven't been able to discover a photo, or its
location, but it may well have been the local community centre. Can you confirm
this? The village also had Primitive and
Wesleyan Methodist Chapels, both of which survive,
though re-purposed. The P.M. was built in 1886 on Front Street, at NZ 3366 3745,
and on later maps is labelled as Front Street Methodist Church. Now in
commercial use, it can be seen in this
2010 Streetview. Mount Zion
Wesleyan stood on Church Street at NZ 3368 3752. It had been built no later than
1902. Its 2009 Streetview
suggests that it's now in residential use.

Several monuments in the churchyard are listed separately
here. Older maps mark an Independent Chapel on
Victoria Road at SP 1483 0405. It pre-dates a map of 1882 and had closed no
later than 1959. The building on the site today can be seen in a
Streetview from 2011. The
same map also shows a Plymouth Brethren Chapel, but
it doesn't indicate exactly which building is intended, and it had evidently
closed by 1902 when the next available map was published. It stood (stands?)
somewhere within the row of buildings seen by
Streetview in 2011. This
source mentions a Baptist Chapel of
1838-1880's, but doesn't locate it, and the 1882 map doesn't show it.

Grade II listed. The 1903 25" O.S. map shows a Chapel on High Street, fairly
close to the church. Another map of 1919 marks it as "W.M. Chapel", so
Wesleyan. According to this
pdf document,
which has a photo, it was built circa 1819, and has been demolished. It stood at
SK 5610 1650. It was succeeded by a new chapel in 1907, close to its
predecessor, and it can be seen on a 2018 Streetview
here. It has since been
converted into flats, and the local Methodists now meet in St. Bartholomew. The
same pdf document also identifies another chapel on Meeting Street, which shows
on the 1904 6" map at SK 5589 1630. It was a Primitive
Methodist Chapel, of 1820-1923, and is now in residential use. Its 2017
Streetview can be seen here
(the blue house). Again, referring to the pdf document, two
Wesleyan Reform Chapels are mentioned, the first
was a house on Meeting Street (precise location not known), which was used from
1850-1855. Its successor of 1855 stands on School Lane, and
can be seen on a 2017 Streetview
here. It later became a United Methodist Free Church.
