Upperby Methodist Church
A stone plaque above the door is inscribed 'PRIMITIVE METHODIST CHURCH.1901.' For further information, see http://www.myprimitivemethodists.org.uk/page_id__62.aspx?path=0p9p22p .
The church is on the corner of Upperby Road and Nursery Road (right). The latter leads to a side entrance at Upperby Primary School, but the road's name is not related to the school's infants - it refers to a plant nursery which used to occupy nearby land.

Church of St John the Baptist, Upperby
Built circa 1840, in early Gothic Revival style. A chapel extension was added in 1975.
The church of St John the Baptist is remarkably similar in structure to St John the Evangelist at Houghton, to the North of Carlisle - see Geograph photo https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5694555 . It is assumed that they were designed by the same architect.
Information for this description was found on the Diocese of Carlisle website https://www.carlislediocese.org.uk/church/carlisle-st-john-the-baptist.html .
