Cresselly (Crissilly) Primitive Methodist chapel
Myrtle Grove Cresselly KILGETTY SA68 0SW
The opening of Crissilly (sic) Primitive Methodist chapel in the Swansea circuit is recorded in the Primitive Methodist magazine by J Hibbs. Opening services took place on 30 September 1838 when the preachers were J Hibbs and “a preacher friend”.
Thanks were particularly due to J H Allen Esq who gave the land and stone for the building.
The new chapel measured 29′(l) x 18′(w) x 14′(h).
On the 1865 Ordnance Survey map, a Primitive Methodist chapel is shown at the end of what became Myrtle Grove. The building footprint is still there in 1907, but with no label. It disappears after that.
