Calshot, the rear of the former St. George on the B3053. Its Genuki entry provides a view of the other end, and says that it was still active in 2015. It doesn't show on a map of 1961. A news item dates the creation of the adjacent cemetery to 2019, so perhaps the church had closed by then. SU 4762 0149.

The village also had two chapels, showing as a Primitive Methodist and a Baptist on the 25" O.S. map of 1896. The P.M., stood or stands behind houses on the south side of High Street at SU 6799 2208. Aerial views show that it may have survived, or been replaced with a later building with the same footprint, but it can't be seen on Streetview. An old photo of it can be seen here. It pre-dates a map of 1869. The Baptist Chapel was on Temple Lane at SU 6809 2208. It survives, converted to residential use (2011 Streetview). The text below the 1869 map says it was at that time called Zoar Strict Baptist Chapel, and was later R.C. (which Genuki calls Chapel of The Assumption), converted in the 1990's. The map also shows Providence Chapel (Calvinist) on Chapel Lane. It had evidently been demolished by the time of the 1896 O.S. map. Its site lies behind the hedge seen in a 2022 Streetview.

Easton, St. Mary. SU 5092 3226. © Chris Kippin. Another view, two interior views - 1, 2, and the font, both © Chris Stafford (2014). Link. Grade I listed. The My Primitive Methodists entry for the village lists three P.M. Chapels for the village. The first was of 1840 on Magdalene Lane. Perhaps it's changed its name, but I can't find any on-line references to this lane. Next was an un-located chapel of 1870, demolished in 1969. It's likely to be the one shown on a map of 1908 marked as Methodist Chapel (Primitive) on Chapel Lane, at SU 5108 3189. Its site (the far end of the lawn) can be seen in a Streetview from 2020. The third chapel is dated 1909-1969. It's marked with a cross on the main east-west road at SU 5123 3209, on a map of 1958, and it can be seen in a Streetview from 2020.

Roger explains - "One of the most interesting attractions for the casual visitor is the historic grave of Dame Alice Lisle of nearby Moyles Court (now a school). In 1685 following the Battle of Sedgemore, she was wrongly accused of harbouring companions of the just captured James Duke of Monmouth, and was subsequently beheaded at the hands of the notorious Judge Jeffreys."

Everton, St. Mary, on Branwood Close. What must be presumed to be its predecessor is labelled on older O.S. maps simply as Mission Church.
