The former Methodist Church on Gladstone Street and Cromford Road was built as Primitive Methodist. Dated here to before 1900 with closure in 1974, there are dedication stones dated 1884 and 1886 in this photo. SK 4518 4746. The same source mentions a preceding P.M.

Both © David Regan (2021). The site of a demolished Free United Methodist Chapel on Argyle Street and Cromford Road. Pre-dating a map of 1881, it is still labelled (as Church) on a map of 1955, but the label had gone in 1961 and the building was later demolished. SK 4509 4757. © David Regan (2021). Old maps also mark a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel on Wesley Street, at SK 4512 4714. It's dated here to "before 1873", and closed in 1987 as the Methodist Church. Its site now lies beneath the road, roughly where "Wesley Street" can be seen in this 2019 Streetview. A Mission Church is shown on a map of 1901 on Elnor Street, at SK 4517 4703. Still present in 1955, it had gone by the early 1960's. Its site can be seen in a Streetview of 2019.

Langport, Somerset, All Saints, on The Hill, is now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. Another view. ST 4223 2674. Link. Grade I listed. The Hanging Chapel, also on The Hill, is a former chantry chapel above a gateway. Its grade I listing says that it had more recently been the Town Hall, a school, arms store and Sunday school, but at the time of its writing, it was being used by the Masons. ST 4214 2669. All © Chris Kippin (2020). The U.R.C. on Bow Street can barely be seen because of trees on this 2016 Streetview. Older maps show it as Congregational. This source dates this Independent Chapel to 1828-9. ST 4184 2678. The same source advises of a Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses dating from 1970 in Beard's Yard, off Bow Street. The entrance can be seen on a 2009 Streetview. It also says that they had previously met in The Reading Room, but I haven't been able to establish where this is or was. And again the same source mentions a Particular Baptist Chapel of 1851 on the "south side of the Hill"; more accurately, old maps show it on the south side of what was Whatley Lane (Bush Place now). The appearance of the building on the site today, as seen by Streetview in 2009 suggests that something of the building survives, and the source says it was still standing and in use as a private parking garage by 1972. The 25" O.S. map of 1887 shows a Wesleyan Mission Room on the south of Whatley Lane at ST 4203 2669. Satellite views suggest it hasn't survived, and the Streetview van hasn't been past the site, but the entrance to the lane can be seen here, in 2009. Langport Cemetery on Newtown Road once had a Mortuary Chapel. It stood at ST 4228 2736, but has been demolished. In this 2009 Streetview it would have stood just slightly right of, and quite close, to the entrance. Link.

This source says that the church was closed sometime between 2002 and 2015, and has been converted to residential use. SP 9912 3892. It also mentions a medieval predecessor in what is now the cemetery, a little way to the south-east, finally demolished in 1961. The same source, and also Genuki, says it was also dedicated to St. Margaret, but O.S. maps are consistent in labelling it as All Saints. Streetview doesn't have a view of the cemetery (access road here, in 2021), and I haven't been able to find a photo of the old church. SP 9919 3883. Lidlington Church, on Church Street, as seen by Streetview in 2020. Zooming in to the roundel below the apex shows that this was originally Bethel Primitive Methodist Chapel. It's dated here to 1863, where it also mentions a predecessor (un-located) of 1850. SP 9900 3901. Link. The village also had a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel on High Street. It survives, converted into a house, and can be seen in a 2021 Streetview. It's dated here to 1854, where it mentions an earlier chapel of 1805, again un-located. Closure is given as 1957, or soon after, following merger with the Primitive Methodist congregation. SP 9908 3882.

Lifton, Devon, St. Mary the Virgin. Another view. SX 3863 8501. Both from old postcards in Reg Dosell's Collection. This church had also been an entry on the long-term unsolved page but its identity has now been confirmed. Brad and Steph MacDonald inherited these large framed photos (1, 2) from a relative who lived in North Cornwall. They believe they are over 100 years old. Hannah Chandler has provided the solution. Suspecting it was this Church, she contacted the owners of the adjacent house, who confirmed that it was indeed St. Mary, and that the differences in the old photo, and the church as it is today, are explained by renovation works. Hannah also pointed me to its Wikipedia entry which has a modern photo. Two modern views - 1, 2, the interior and font. All © Chris Kippin (2022). Link. Grade I listed. Several monuments in the churchyard are listed separately - these can be found here. Older O.S. maps show a Baptist Chapel on the north side of Fore Street. Labelled as such on a large scale map of 1906, it isn't shown on one of 1884. I think it stood where the grey building is in a Streetview from 2022 - whether any fabric from the chapel survives is unclear.

For details of two listed monuments in the churchyard, see here. A converted former Wesleyan Methodist Chapel stands off West Street at TL 1172 2660. It was (just) glimpsed by Streetview in 2014 - the white building behind the tree, and here's the footpath which accessed it, from Streetview in 2010. Some photos of the former chapel are available here. This photo (© Bill McKenzie) previously listed as being St. Peter clearly isn't. Judy thinks it could well be a Hertfordshire church, it having the distinctive Hertfordshire spike. Can you identify it?
Lilliesleaf, Borders, CoS. NT 5391 2531. © Bill McKenzie. Link1. Link2 dates it to 1771. Category B listed. O.S. maps mark Burial Vaults and remains of Church in the churchyard to the south-east of the present church - presumably a predecessor. The remains aren't visible on Streetview. The churchyard, including these remains, is category B listed. A little over half a mile E.N.E. of the church is a cluster of buildings (Chapel Farm), one of which is labelled Chapel on O.S. maps. Aerial views suggest it survives, but it isn't visible on Streetview, and I haven't been able to discover anything about it, other than a brief news report about the discovery of an old skeleton. NT 5475 2563. A map of 1921 shows a United Free Church south of the main road through the village, at NT 5358 2518. What appears to be the same building is present but not labelled as a place of worship on a map of 1899 - the same applies to a map of 1963. The building survives - presumably converted to residential use -  and was seen by the Streetview van in 2021, from a street running parallel to the main street (from where the church is screened by dense vegetation).

A Primitive Methodist Chapel is shown on an O.S. map of 1899, on Royston Road at TL 3144 4250. A P.M. chapel is mentioned here, where it's dated to 1850. Whether this is the same chapel as the one shown on the map is of course uncertain. The chapel on the map hasn't survived, and its site can be seen on a Streetview from 2011.

Little Asby, Cumbria, former church. Another view. The adjoining property is "The Manse". NY 6984 0966. Both © Martin Richter (2011). Kevin Price has advised that when it closed in about 1965, this was Little Asby Congregational Church. In the late 1960's it was being used for motorcycle repair and storage, but is now a residential/holiday let. O.S. maps indicate the site of St. Leonard's Church a short distance away at NY 6990 0962. The best that can be said from the 2010 Streetview is that it stood in the field behind the farmhouse or adjacent barn. Its Genuki entry says it was "closed before 1831".
