The 1882 Primitive Methodist magazine tells us they were starting work on a new Primitive Methodist chapel at Fegg-Hayes in the Bradley Green circuit where the society had been meeting previously in a small room.
It was expected to cost £470 of which they had raised over half.
The 1899 Ordnance Survey map shows a Primitive Methodist chapel towards the northern end of East Terrace. It is still there on the 1941 map.
Street View in 2011 shows replacement housing on the site. It also shows the former Wesleyan chapel on Fegg-Hayes Road still in existence in 2012

The Methodist Chapel on Fegg Hayes Road is still in there and continues to function as a Methodist Church. The Chapel was refurbished in 2016 and now has a new build community centre called The Hub@ST6 on the site of the former function room and out buildings.
I’ve added a painting of the former chapel, recently donated to the Englesea Brook Museum of Primitive Methodism.
