Former Primitive Methodist Chapel, Minions
Former Primitive Methodist Chapel, Minions
More or less identical to SX2671 : Converted Methodist Chapel in Minions, and unachanged in eight years, but a chance to quote from LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) : " in the second half of the nineteenth century Minions accommodated two chapels ... The larger of the two chapels is the former Primitive Methodist Chapel. It was built in 1863 when the majority of industry-related building took place in the village. Originally the
chapel would have been positioned a small distance from the track joining the Gonamena Incline, but in 1877 the new railway line was constructed hard behind it. The essential character of the building still remains; the high
pitched roof with original slates, tall lancet windows on the façade, the date stone and the original low front wall with railings. The chapel is now however a domestic building, the walls and quoins have been painted and there are velux windows in the roof."
