Great Horton Bell Chapel - east end
Image: © Stephen Craven Taken: 10 Sep 2016
A former bell chapel, a 2-storey rectangular building in Georgian style "erected by public subscription as a chapel of ease" in 1806. I have not found out when it ceased to be used for worship (certainly before 1965) but it was formally, if belatedly closed in 1971 and sold to J&C Broadley Ltd "in connection with the woolen industry". Covenants were varied in 1980 to permit use for a tool hire business (as mentioned in the list description) but it was sold again in 2009 to Southfield Health Care for use as part of a residential home, although the conversion does not appear to have gone ahead and it may now be disused. For the other end see Image The chapel is now listed grade 2 (list entry 1314123).
