Cemeteries We believe the Church does NOT have a graveyard. Note: any church within an urban environment may have had its graveyard closed after the Burial Act of 1853. Any new church built after that is unlikely to have had a graveyard at all. Church History This Place of Worship was founded in 1876, and we understand it is still open. Hill Street Baptist Church is built of red brick with cream coloured stone facing to the windows and doors, complemented by matching horizontal banding of the same material. The shorter side, facing the road, has two round-arched doorways, on either side of which is a double window; and above the whole is a larger mock-venetian window with an encircling arch. Most importantly, though, there are stone plaques above the doors, which are inscribed "Baptist Chapel 1876". The sides are long, with 5 bays, 4 of which have double windows, and it appears there is an extension, built perhaps at a later date. The whole is not easy to describe, but there is a photograph - Swadlincote Baptist Chapel - on the Geograph website. Denomination Now or formerly Baptist. If more than one congregation has worshipped here, or its congregation has united with others, in most cases this will record its original dedication.

Search Tips:

You can specify either a Place, or OS Grid Reference to search for. When you specify a Place, only entries for that place will be returned, with Places of Worship listed in alphabetical order. If you specify a Grid Reference, Places of Worship in the immediate vicinity will be listed, in order of distance from the Grid Reference supplied. The default is to list 10, but you can specify How Many you want to see, up to a maximum of 100.

You can further refine your search by supplying other search terms.

• You can specify entries with ('Yes') or without ('No') photographs.
• You can specify a church or chapel's Dedication, to restrict entries to those containing the term you supply as a dedication. So for instance, 'John' would return 'St John', 'St Mary and St John', 'St John the Divine' &c.
• You can specify a Street address, and likewise 'George' will return George Place, St George's Street, George and Dragon, &c.
• You can restrict the search to classes of Denomination. The exact denomination is always shown in the results, although the search is for broad types. Thus you can search for 'Methodist', but not 'Wesleyan Methodist' or 'Primitive Methodist'. 'Multi-denominational' includes Ecumenical Partnerships, and 'Miscellaneous' means anything not covered by other broad classes.
