Looked at this place a couple of times and all locked up.
Went back on a quiet Saturday afternoon and the back door was on the latch.

Shut it's doors Janraury this year, after 138 years. Congregation dwindled to 6 in the end. Surprisingly the organ was tuned last month though. It's up for sale for 50k, no planning for residential though.​

Hope you enjoyed.
 
What a beauty. I hope this doesn't go the way of other similar chapels but it's hard to see how it has a future. :(
 
The roof is going in the corners. The hall down below is in a bad way.
 
All that chapel for six folk, no wonder it closed down and those clergymen looked a bit dodgy, it is a lovely building but I believe Krela is correct, there's no chance that the Westlyans will even try to save it and economically they too are right, damned shame though, Nicely Done, Thanks

Has seating for 1100 people, 70 odd row up and down. Built when the copper works were in full swing.
