Blythe Bridge Methodist Church

This stone church dates from the 19th century and appears to have a thriving congregation. It is located on Uttoxeter Road in the area once known as Blythe Marsh, a distinct settlement from Blythe Bridge further west. The two have long since coalesced and it is hard to determine where one ends and the other begins but the 'Blythe Bridge' name seems to be generally used for the whole area. Note the banner to the right of the church on the railings of the William Amory Primary School and Nursery which states: 'Let's do it to keep schools open. Book your coronavirus test now'.
