Cornwall - Mevagissey

In 1815 William O'Bryan (a.k.a Bryant) from Luxulyan initiated a breakaway movement from Methodism with its followers referring to themselves Bible Christians. In parts of Cornwall this non-conformist branch was even more popular than that of the Wesleyans. As was the case here, many towns and villages had both a Wesleyan and a Bible Christian Chapel. This chapel, located at the end of the one-way traffic system leading out of the village, has been converted into residential accommodation.
