Former chapel, Welton
There are two former chapels on this site; to the left is a modern extension at the rear of a neo-gothic baptist chapel facing West Road, which is listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1115225 , with the date given unequivocally as 1839.
This neo-classical facade, which also has a quatrefoil, faces Millard's Hill and has a tablet inscribed "Primitive Methodist Chapel AD 1858", is not listed. (Both have been converted into flats, known as Millard's Court.) https://docplayer.net/85018444-Midsomer-norton-and-welton-conservation-area-character-appraisal.html describes this as "built
of squared coursed white lias limestone rubble with oolitic limestone
dressings and semi-circular headed windows and central door". But it gives a date of 1935 for the listed building next door. I think, however, that must be the date of the extension.

Off line!
The footbridge just visible to the left of shot replaced the old railway bridge some time ago, but certain railway apparatus seems to have been retained near to its original location.

No more steam and soot
The footbridge over Station Road is a modern affair that carries the National Cycle Route 24 and pedestrians. But not so long ago it was a much more substantial structure that saw steam and diesel trains since the founding of the Bristol and North Somerset Railway in 1873. The line was absorbed into the Great Western Railway later on and continued to serve many of the local coal fields until 1964.
Much of the western embankment has been lost and with it a projecting bracket. See Image] for a view from the bridge.
