The opening of Weston Common Primitive Methodist chapel on Sunday 28th April 1850 is recorded in the Primitive Methodist magazine by John Morton. Opening preachers included P Pugh, J Morton and J Drayton.
The chapel was brick built and slate roofed with red pine floorboards and four Gothic windows. John Eyres gave the land and the building cost around £112. Mrs Jarvies gave a pulpit cushion. Grid reference: SJ 42397 26326
You can read more about it on Janice Cox’s Shropshire’s Non-Conformist chapels website here. It tells us that the chapel still exists but is unrecognisable.
