Friends' Meeting House on Meeting House Lane. This source dates it to circa 1666, but was this the present building? Probably not, as otherwise it's likely to have been listed.

There is/was a double Mortuary Chapel in the cemetery on Revill Lane. Tree cover prevents me from seeing from satellite views if they survive, and I haven't been able to find a photo. SK 4220 8505. The former Primitive Methodist Chapel on Chapel Street, now in commercial use. David advises that the chapel dates from 1905, but that the original pre-1875 chapel survives to the rear.
