A modern church building, in fact the third on the site, built 1990 to replace the previous Wesleyan chapels of 1800 and 1890 (source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/rossendalewadey/5885068439 ). The architecture retains a traditional 'chapel' style of pitched slate roof and arched windows. The space between and around them is a burial ground, though few monuments remain standing.
