Cemeteries

We believe the Chapel did 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 1834, but we understand it was closed in 1972.

The history of this church's congregation can be traced back to 1836, if not earlier. In that year, the Methodist new Connexion purchased the New Jerusalem Church in London Street from the Swedenborgians, using it until 1901, when they moved into the present building in Dairyhouse Road, which was newly built that year.

A more comprehensive history may be found on the Derby Methodist History website, where it is referred to as "Dairy Road Methodist New Connection Church". Since its closure as a centre of worship for United Methodists, it has been adopted by a Ukrainian Catholic congregation and it is now known as St Michael's Ukrainian Catholic Church.

Denomination

Now or formerly New Connexion/United Methodist.

If more than one congregation has worshipped here, or its congregation has united with others, in most cases this will record its original dedication.
