The former Wesleyan chapel, with Sunday school attached to the right, is closed and currently unoccupied. It dates from 1828, replacing an earlier chapel of 1797. The building is grade II listed (list entry 1255978) and the listing gives a detailed history of alterations. The walls and gates are separately listed (entry 1255985). Reasons for listing include internal features such as a gallery, complete set of box pews, and double deck pulpit. It is to be hoped these are not lost to vandalism or subsequent conversion of the building.
