Horwich Mason's Memorial PM Chapel Lee Lane
Foundation stones for this chapel were laid in 1897
We have been unable to find out anything about this chapel. It is not mentioned in the statistical records of the Methodist Church unless under another name.
In 2014 the building is closed for worship and is being used for commercial purposes.

Comments about this page
The 1893 October Primitive Methodist magazine (page 637) records the laying of memorial stones for a mission church in Horwich. Horwich as a new railway centre “had suddenly assumed the proportions of a town” so development of the mission was led by by the Manchester District Missionary Committee assisted by WP Hartley.
How does the new mission church relate to the Mason’s Memorial chapel where memorial stones were laid 4 years later?
