Wrexham Colliery Road Primitive Methodist chapel
David Young
“Colliery Chapel” cause began in 1856, and became Primitive (from United Methodist) in 1893; it was rebuilt 1936-8 because of subsidence. It is still in use as a Methodist place of worship.
The rebuilding included the addition of an extra side window and a schoolroom.

I sat on the wall of the chapel many times as a child. Also on the old railway bridge at the far end towards the winding house waiting for the steam trains to pass under . The bridge has also long gone since the by pass was built. Would be nice to see some old photo’s of colliery houses and Finney street.
