The Agapemone Chapel
Built in 1846, together with an adjoining house at the rear on the left, for the Agapemone (Abode of Love), a religious cult founded by the defrocked Reverend Henry James Prince, who had already been operating in Suffolk and Weymouth. Prince and his rector, Samuel Starky, variously claimed to be The Holy Ghost, the Prophet Elijah, and Two Witnesses of Revelation chapter 11. Prince's successor, John Hugh Smyth-Pigott, went a crucial step further in 1899 by claiming to be the new messiah. Some of the scandalous goings-on at Spaxton are related in a more detailed history at http://www.utopia-britannica.org.uk/pages/abode%20of%20love.htm . Some fascinating photos before and after recent restoration work are at http://www.maertonstud.com/complete_Web_site/The_Agapemone_Restoration_page.html .
