Boldon U.R.C. on Front Street, labelled as Congregational on older maps, built before 1895. NZ 3634 6131. © Peter Morgan. The church is now "former" as a Streetview from 2023 shows it in secular use.

East Boldon Methodist Church, on Front Street, Wesleyan on older maps. NZ 3598 6136. © Peter Morgan. Another view, © James Murray. In 2026 Google maps is labelling it as "permanently closed". This source says it was closed in April 2025.

The cemetery on Dipe Lane has a double Mortuary Chapel - 2024 Streetview. Old maps show the nearer chapel to have been CoE, and the other Nonconformist. This source dates the cemetery to 1872. NZ 3541 6098.

This building on Front Street is obviously a former chapel, but available maps don't enlighten us as to exactly what it was - can you advise? Built before 1895, it still seems to have been active in 1939. NZ 3641 6132. © Peter Morgan.
