Primitive Methodist Chapel, Lakes End

This is such a beautiful building that it deserves separate photos to show some of the detail. See also Image This chapel is similar architecturally to several other nearby former Primitive Methodist Chapels (see Image at Black Horse Drove and Image at Ten Mile Bank). However, this one is still in use as a church. The original chapel at Lakes End was Wesleyan, founded ante 1800. The current chapel is Primitive Methodist, built with an adjacent schoolroom in 1914. I always think when I see this date on a building that they must not have suspected what lay just ahead, i.e. the start of the First World War.
