wherein the present church is dated to 1863, its predecessor to 1790. The
CoI church is on Main Street (2019

very ancient structure, but in a state of dilapidation". Whether it was on the

Could it have been the
Church of the Rath (2019 Streetview), which stands at the north end of the
town, on Church Street? It seems likely, although this
source (which dates it to the late 1600's) says that it fell into disrepair

both the church and manse date from 1912. The Free Church

Herefordshire, the former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel. Much altered, and now in
residential use, the building is unrecognisable as a former chapel, but there is
a dedication stone, and the building is today called The Chapel. It
pre-dates the 1866-7 O.S. map, and is still marked as Methodist Church on
a map of 1964, but is not marked as such on the next map of 1977. SO 2941 5408. ©

Memorial Hall stands on the site of a small Independent (Congregational) Chapel, built before 1871,
when it appears on a map of that year. Disused on the map of 1898, and Parish Room in 1913, the chapel stood further back from the road
than the current building line. Enlargement, perhaps involving demolition, occurred in the 1920's, but it is interesting to speculate whether the chapel
survived all this, and still stands, surrounded by the newer building works, and seen here, with the
finials on the ends of the ridge-line. Another view. NY 6395 2575. All © Howard Richter (2014). The
