The former Providence Strict Baptist Chapel (1860) on Abington Street. It's now in commercial use. SP 7593 6073. The congregation moved to a new church, also Providence, on The Headlands and Thirlmere Avenue, in 1957. Two interior views - 1, 2. SP 7845 6308. All © Gerard Charmley (2021).

St. Edmund stood on Wellingborough Road. Demolished in 2007, this photo is an old family photo, from Hannah Plowman's collection. There seems to be remarkably little on-line about this church, but this source says it was consecrated in 1852. A photo is available here. The bells were taken to a new church in New Zealand - read the story here.
