A Primitive Methodist Chapel was first built in Earsdon in 1825, and is shown on the first edition of the Ordnance Survey Six-Inch map of the area published in 1865 as being located immediately behind (south of) what is now the Red Lion Public House. It was replaced by the present stone-built chapel, with schoolroom and vestries, in 1886 and although it appears to be small from this angle it has a large basement and an extension to the rear.
