Worcestershire

This is a list of chapels that had been registered by 1867, derived from ‘A list of places of meeting for public religious worship, certified to the Registrar General’.   Remember that registration was not compulsory. As registration was valid until cancelled, however, there may be duplication: i.e.  both the old and new chapels in a place may be listed. We have also discovered that the official location may not be the same as the name by which the chapel is commonly described.

Worcestershire has the most complex of all county boundaries. For convenience the chapels in the Borough of Dudley, which was administratively part of Worcestershire are shown on the page for Staffordshire. Most of the Dudlet Registration District was properly part of Staffordshire.

Unless otherwise stated each of these places of worship is described as a chapel.

The numbers on the list relate to places, and match those on the map. The base map is provided under this licence
