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 before 1800, but we understand it was closed before 1976. The entry for Winson in Kelly's Directory of 1923 mentions a Primitive Methodist Chapel, and its position is marked on OS Maps of 1902 and 1921 1:2,500, but by a similar map of 1976, it appears to have been demolished. The Religious Census of 1851 (HO 129/341/2/1/2) records a Primitive Methodist Chapel in Winson, which was a separate building, erected "before 1800", with free seating for 20 persons, and standing room for 10, though the building was not used exclusively as a place of worship. The average number of attendees for the previous 12 months was 35, and there was no associated Sunday school. The return was completed by William Sparrow, its Manager. This may refer to an earlier building than the one marked on Old Maps, perhaps giving some indication of how the present-day Listed Building "Chapel Cottage" acquired its name. Chapel Cottage is on the opposite side of Ditch Lane, and a few yards south of the Chapel building, and though I have no evidence of this it seems possible meetings may have taken place there originally. Denomination Now or formerly Primitive 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.

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.
