The founder of the Methodist movement, John Wesley, laid the first stone of Wesley House, and its adjoining chapel https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6847848, in 1786. A century later it was extensively remodelled and extended by the acclaimed local-based architect Frederick Richard Wilson, at that time Diocesan Surveyor for Lindisfarne, to create this rather imposing building. These days, the building offers self-catering holiday accommodation.
