Old maps show three chapels in the village, two Methodist and a Congregational.
The former Congregational Chapel stands set back
from the A5 at SP 9742 2659, and was seen by
Streetview in 2019. This
source says it was also home to the Primitive Methodists from 1913-20. A
Primitive Methodist Chapel stood on Woburn Road, at
SP 9727 2683. It's dated
here to 1861, closing in 1913, and demolished in 1933. It stood on what is
now the grass next to the corner house seen in a
Streetview from 2020. The
other Methodist Chapel was Wesleyan, dated
here to 1833-1919. A house now stands on the site (although the chapel stood
further back from the road), and it was seen by
Streetview in 2020.

in rather than the building date. SK 3377 6912. © David Regan (2015). The same

A Primitive Methodist Chapel once stood on King
Street at TL 0187 2383. It's dated
here to 1862, with closure on or before 1935. The same source mentions a
predecessor of 1844, though its location isn't given. Its site lies beneath the
building seen here in a
Streetview from 2018. The Wesleyans were also
present in the town, on the corner of Cumberland Street and Queen's Street, at
TL 0180 2372. The house now on the site can be seen in a
Streetview from 2018. The
1936-61 1" O.S. map shows two other places of worship, fairly close to each
other, south of the High Street. One was a Wesleyan
Methodist Chapel (presumably successor to the one mentioned earlier), a
little way west of Cumberland Street. Its site lies somewhere near the end of
the brick wall, seen here in
a Streetview from 2019. TL 0173 2373. A Baptist Church,
stood a bit further west again, set back from High Street at TL 0168 2373. A
photo and some history are available
here, and its site, which lies beneath a car park, can be seen in a
Streetview from 2016.

where it was/is. Old maps show a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel
off Main Street at SK 6990 4696. Streetview has only managed a distant view, so
I can't tell if it survives, but if it does it's probably the building behind

Link. The former Methodist Church was built as
Wesleyan. The village Wikipedia
entry provides dates for
the two adjacent chapels, of 1831 for the smaller chapel at left, and 1891 for
its larger neighbour. Both can be seen in Streetviews as they were when the
church was still active - in 2016
here, and after closure and
in use as offices, here, in
2019. The 25" O.S. map of 1929 shows a Baptist Church
on Dennis Street at SK 4261 1262. Still standing (though scaffolded) in 2009, as
seen here in a Streetview,
it had been demolished and replaced by housing by the time of the next
Streetview van visit in 2011.
The 1929 25" map shows a Mission Room on Fairfield
Road. Because of some uncertainty about which building is being indicated, it's
not possible to give an exact grid reference - so circa SK 425 131, and today
the site is perhaps under the road or the adjacent pavements as seen
here on a 2017 Streetview. One last site is worth
mentioning. The 25" map indicates St. James's Church (site
of) off Dennis Street at SK 4272 1260. Assuming the map is accurate, the
church stood among the trees to the left of the path in this
2011 Streetview. Its Genuki
entry
dates it to 1776, the village Wikipedia
entry says that
it was preceded by a Chapel of Ease on Dennis Street, so perhaps on the same
site.

holds registers from 1883. NS 4580 3695. The former United Presbyterian Church (1897-8) on Mauchline Road,
now converted to residential use. From map evidence, it was built after 1896, and before 1910,when it shows as United Free. This
source quotes Hansard (1948), from which "has been derelict
for 16 years". It also says that it was in use as a hostel during WWII. What other use was made of it between 1932 and 2007 is at present unclear. NS 4554 3665.

Hursley, Hampshire, All Saints. This
postcard (from Reg Dosell's Collection, previously in the "Unknown section) is
clearly marked as Horsley Church, but I was unable to connect it to any of the
several Horsley's around the country. Both Bill Davison and Janet Gimber have
shown that it is of All Saints, Hursley. This
link shows the
church as re-built by John Keble, but the spire was removed and other changes
made in 1959. A modern
photo shows it looking more like the church it was before the Keble work was
carried out.

Hutton-le-Hole, North Yorkshire,
St. Chad. The village
Wikipedia entry dates it to 1934. SE 7061 8993. © Bill
Henderson. Link. The
congregation had previously met in a nearby building, marked as
St. Chad's Mission Room on a map of 1912. A map of
1856 shows it as Zion Chapel (Independent), and
it's dated here to 1840.
Demolished during or before 1934, it stood at SE 7057 8992, and its
site was seen by
Streetview in 2024. The Methodists also had a presence here in the form of a
Wesleyan Chapel of 1816 at SE 7050 8988, and Primitive at SE 7045 9002. The P.M.
survives and has a date-stone for 1863. It hasn't been seen by Streetview but a
photo can be seen
here. The Wesleyan also hasn't been seen by Streetview - aerial views
suggest it hasn't survived. The 6" map of 1856 shows a
Friends' Meeting House, though it isn't clear which building is intended.
I think (if it survives) that it will be one of the houses seen distantly
in a Streetview from
2024. Circa SE 7046 8992.
