hearsay The Wesleyan Methodist chapel was built 1853, during the great revival of Methodism. An itinerant preacher Adam Dodds is said to be the A.D. on the plaque!
BUT
This doesn't seem to agree with the plaque found. There was another methodist chapel, primitive methodist, on the road to Whitehall which we haven't seen.
