Ancaster, Lincolnshire, St. Martin, on Ermine Street. Another view. SK 9827 4357. Both © Jim Parker. A further view, showing the spire restored to its full height, © Alan Blacklock (2010). Three interiors - 1, 2, 3, the North arcade with arches with billet and chevron decoration, the porch has two tomb lids - 1, 2, both apparently of priests, and the very fine font, all © David Regan (2019). Link. Grade I listed. Large scale O.S. maps mark the site of the vanished St. Mary's Chapel, at SK 9838 4351. The field in which it stood can be seen on a 2011 Streetview. In all likelihood, it stood on the slight elevation to the right.

Ancrum, Borders, Church of Scotland. It's dated here to 1888/90. NT 6267 2458. © Bill McKenzie. It was successor to what is today known as Old Ancrum Kirk, or Ancrum Old Parish Church, which stands further west close to the river, at NT 6215 2488. Not seen by Streetview, this source dates it to 1761-2, on the site of 12th century church, and it says it was "reduced to a romantic ruin by Sir William Scott of Ancrum" soon after the present church opened. A photo can be seen here. Category B listed. Old O.S. maps show a Free Church at NT 6291 2450. It's dated here to 1851, and maps imply it survived as an active church into the 1950's at least. It hasn't been seen bt Streetview, and I haven't been able to find a photo.

There used to be a Methodist Chapel (originally Wesleyan) a little way east of the church, at TF 5322 7577. Genuki dates it to 1839-1966. Another source has 1839-1974, although 1974 may relate to its demolition rather than closure. It stood behind the phone mast at the centre of this Streetview from 2021.

Annfield Plain, Co. Durham, St. Aidan. It dates from 1925, 1928, or 1929-30, according to the source consulted. It was closed in 2016 according to this source, which is the one which dates it to 1925, and it says it replaced a temporary Mission Hall.

Two modern views - 1, 2, two of the interior - 1, 2, two windows - 1, 2, and the superb font, all © Chris Stafford (2013). Link. Grade I listed. Old maps show a Primitive Methodist Chapel at TL 4075 3331. It's not apparent from Streetview whether it still survives or not, but the building glimpsed here in the background, its roof showing above the hedge, must stand on or near the site of the chapel. Another Chapel is marked on the 1" map of 1956, a short distance south of the P.M. Chapel, at TL 4069 3324. Very well hidden by trees and hedges, a 2009 Streetview offers a very restricted view. The village website offers a photo.

The former Wesleyan Chapel on Bradgate Road, dating from 1895. SK 5477 0857. © Pamela Weston. The Methodist Church is on Cropston Road. It was seen by Streetview in 2021. This was originally the Sunday School for the Primitive Methodist Chapel which stood opposite. This source dates the school to 1893, and the P.M. Chapel to 1872. It had been preceded by an earlier chapel of 1839, though whether it was on the same site isn't stated. It also says that "By 2017 the chapel has disappeared". In fact Streetviews show that it had gone no later than 2009. Its site now has a takeaway on it, seen by Streetview in 2021. What is probably the church website wasn't working when I tried it. SK 5510 0867. U.R.C. on Bradgate Road. My appreciation to Peter Smith for advising me of a magazine article (see page 3) which says that it was originally Congregational (1879), and closed at the end of October 2021.

Antrobus, Cheshire, St. Mark. Its grade II listing dates it to 1857-9. Curiously, the 1:25,000 O.S. map of 1952 fails to show it. SJ 6446 7963. © Bruce Read. Link. Methodist Church, about ½ a mile north of the village. Older maps label it as Wesleyan. This source, which dates the present chapel to 1936, says it was preceded by an earlier chapel of 1838 - there is a photo of it.

Apperknowle, Derbyshire, the Methodist Chapel on High Street, which was built as Primitive Methodist, opening in 1879 (according to its My Primitive Methodists entry). The same source also mentions an earlier chapel - Ebenezer (1861) which stood or stands "at the junction of Barrack Road and Chapel Lane, almost opposite the junction with Quarry Road". It's marked on a map of 1877, immediately south-east of the junction mentioned, on the west side of the road, and the property on the site today can be seen here on a 2009 Streetview. Whether anything of the chapel remains is not known. SK 3837 7826. © David Regan (2020).

Appersett, North Yorkshire, burial ground. Not shown on the 1856 O.S. 6" map, the 1894 edition has it as disused. The 1912 map shows a Friends' Meeting Room nearby, so the burial ground was in all likelihood theirs, though whether it still exists is not, at present, established.

Arthill, Cheshire, the former Baptist Chapel (C18) on Reddy Lane, now in secular use. SJ 7255 8550. © Mike Berrell (2012). It pre-dates a map of 1882, as does a nearby Wesleyan Methodist Chapel a little way south at SJ 7248 85334. It hasn't survived, its site now lying beneath the M56. In a Streetview from 2023 its site is on the right of Reddy Lane beneath the bridge support. Right beneath the bridge is a memorial (2023 Streetview) including a plaque which mentions that John Wesley preached here from 1747, and another providing dates for what was known as Booth Bank Methodist Chapel, 1834-1972. These can both be better seen here. I haven't been able to find a photo of the chapel on-line.

The Coflein entry advises that it was originally a chapel of ease to Llangelynin, and built in the early years of the 19th century. Grade II listed. Howard Richter advises of three chapels. Capel Salem (Wesleyan) stands at SH 6473 1487. The Coflein entry dates it to a re-build of 1868 of an earlier building of 1833, with closure in 1973. It appears to be derelict in a 2010 Streetview. Another Streetview. Capel Seion was Calvinistic Methodist, and Coflein provides the following dates - originally built 1806, enlarged 1839, re-built 1868 and renovated in 1898. Its appearance in a 2009 Streetview suggests that it has been converted to residential use, though in the 2016 version it looks somewhat neglected. Capel Horeb stands at SH 6327 1360. Coflein dates it to "pre-1900". A 2016 Streetview suggests another domestic conversion.

Ashton Hayes, Cheshire (prior to 2004, it was plain Ashton), St. John the Evangelist. This old postcard from Reg Dosell's Collection was identified by Bill Davison. Compare with the photo on this link - when did it lose the small pinnacles on the tower? SJ 5071 6981. A former Primitive Methodist Chapel, now converted, stands on Ashton Lane at SJ 5045 6908. It's dated here to a re-build in 1888 of an earlier chapel of 1845. Old maps show that the first chapel was aligned at 90 degrees to the later building. The source previously mentioned says that "It is currently in use by the Plymouth Brethren". If this is correct they must have had a brief tenure, as Streetviews show that it was closed as Methodist between 2011 and 2016, and sold in or by 2019, and then converted to residential use. It shows a sign Old Chapel House in 2021. A 1" O.S. map of 1948 shows another place of worship not far away on Kelsall Road at SJ 5051 6915. There are no obvious candidates for the building on a Streetview from 2023, but the map suggests it could be the double-fronted building at the centre of the view. It may be the Wesleyan Chapel mentioned on the Primitive Methodist link already above. To confuse things further, the 1" map of 1952 doesn't show that place of worship (or the Primitive Methodist either), but does indicate another P.O.W. at SJ 5062 6920.

Evidently demolished, modern housing now stands on the site, as seen here in a 2016 Streetview. This source identifies it as Primitive Methodist, and it also has an interior photo. The other chapel stands (or stood) on The Wynd, at NZ 2840 2240. The Streetview van hasn't passed by as yet. Howard Richter has pointed me to a directory of 1879, wherein it says The Wesleyans and Primitive Methodists have places of worship, so it's reasonable to assume that the chapel on The Wynd was Wesleyan. He has also advised of this source which mentions that in 1829 the local Wesleyan congregation had a barn "furnished to accommodate 40 people and later became a chapel for 200 worshippers". Can you advise if it survives, or contribute a photo?
