Brief description

"Not far from Coningsby, at the junction of Langrick and Dogdyke Roads, stands this former Wesleyan chapel – you can’t miss it!

It replaced an earlier chapel on the same site which opened on Sunday 11th February 1849. Taking part were the ex-President of the Wesleyan Conference, Rev James Dixon, and the celebrated Wesleyan evangelist, Charles Richardson.

The present building dates from 1872. With seating for 250, and generous Sunday school accommodation, this commodious structure would have made a statement that the Wesleyans were still in charge, for the Reformers made little headway in these parts. Even the village grocer was to advertise for a shop assistant: “A Wesleyan preferred”.

The stone laying ceremony took place on February 22nd (1872) in the presence of the Rev Luke Wiseman, President of the Wesleyan Conference. At the opening, on Thursday 19th September, an address was given by the Rev John W Greaves of London."
