Habrough Station Road Primitive Methodist chapel
Station Rd Habrough DN40 3AY
Keith Guyler 1996
Habrough Station Road Primitive Methodist chapel opened on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday 2nd, 3rd, 4th April 1836. William Wombell tells us that the preachers at the opening included on the Sunday Mr A Smith, on the Monday Rev W Rowe (Baptist) and on the Tuesday Rev S Marston (also a Baptist).
The new chapel measured 16’6″ (w) 26′(l) x 14′(h). Thanks were due to Lord Yarborough who when petitioned gave the land and also to Mr E Johnson who assisted in many respects.
The chapel was rebuilt in 1873. It served until the 1950s.
At the time of Keith Guyler’s photograph in 1996 it had become the Old Chapel Restaurant, now the Old Chapel Hotel.
