Methodist Chapel

The Methodist Chapel, built around 1783 and extended in 1850, is constructed from limestone ashlar with a pantile roof on the late 18th-century section and a Welsh slate roof on the mid-19th-century extension. The building has a T-plan layout, with the later extension forming a cross wing to the right. The one-storey facade from the late 18th century features three bays, with a central doorway that has 20th-century plank doors set within an ogee-headed ovolo-moulded architrave. This doorway is flanked by Y-tracery windows with late 19th-century glazing-bar casements, all set in pointed moulded arches. The gable end of the mid-19th-century wing to the right has three double-chamfered graduated lancets above a pointed-arched doorway with a plank door. The right side wall contains four chamfered lancets. At the rear of the late 18th-century section, there are two similar Y-tracery windows set in pointed arches and a late 18th-century panelled door. Inside, the late 18th-century chapel retains its original coved cornice, while the mid-19th-century chapel features mid-19th-century pews, a balcony with a Gothic-style front supported by cast-iron columns, corbels to the arch-braced king-post roof, and a reredos made from reset late 18th-century fielded panelling. This chapel was opened around 1783 by John Wesley, who preached here several times and noted it in his journals.
