Wesleyan Chapel, Cragg Vale, 1961 - HBC00839
Churches & Chapels, Cragg Vale, Methodist
The last service at Cragg Vale Methodist Church took place in September 1971, and was conducted by Rev E.C. Matkovich.
From a newspaper article dated 19/9/1971 we learn:
The chapel was built in 1835, but prior to this services were held in a building at Higher Cragg and later in a cottage at Smithy Stead.
The opening sermons were preached by Rev J. Farrar and Rev. W. Calson. At the time the chapel was built there no road ran through Cragg Vale, and what are now fields were dense woods. From an old manuscript we learn that “so recently at the time of the building of Cragg Wesleyan Chapel the road from Bottoms was embowered in trees on each side, so that on a dark night it was like going through a tunnel.”
From Sam Hellowell's History of Cragg Vale.

The Octagonal Chapel, Heptonstall - HLS01036
Church, Church Yard, Churches & Chapels, Churches_&_Chapels, Heptonstall, Heptonstall_Methodist, Methodist, Minster, Octagonal Chapel, Places, Wesleyan Chapel
This Grade II listed chapel is situated off Northgate, Heptonstall, and is one of the earliest Wesleyan chapels in the country. John Wesley laid the foundation stone for the unusual octagonal building which was completed in 1764, since when it has been in continuous use.
In 1795, it was decided that a Sunday School should be opened, as it was the only form of education that the poorer children could get. Even then, it would only be a basic schooling in reading and writing, but better than nothing.
The Chapel was originally built as a symmetrical octagon, but by 1802 there were 337 members and 1,002 scholars. To provide extra space, one end was pulled down and the side walls were extended. The extra space created by this enlargement enabled a new raised pulpit and a singing pew to be installed.
The present day Sunday School is just below the chapel and wasn't built until 1891.
