The 1867 Register of non-conformist Chapels includes an entry for Eastburn, near Keighley.  We know they had a Sunday School because the glorious banner is in the Englesea Brook Museum of Primitive Methodism.

The Chapel shown was built or opened in 1872 and is marked on the 1889 Ordnance Survey map. In 2022 the Chapel is still open for worship and has an active Brownies group and House Group meetings fortnightly. The main entrance to the Chapel is on Main Road, with a car park entrance off Moor Lane.

The Statistical Returns for the 1940’s states that the Chapel had seating for 250 + worshippers, 1 school hall and 13 other rooms
