Geocache Description:

You are looking for a nano cache.

The Old Methodist Church is now a private dwelling




Research has revealed little about this church building. However, birth records indicate a church on this site in 1830, and a stone on the front plinth indicates that it was a Wesleyan Methodist Church.

The Wesleyan Methodist Church was the name used by the major Methodist movement in Great Britain following its split from the Church of England after the death of John Wesley in 1791. The title "Wesleyan Methodist Church" remained in use until the Methodist Union of 1932, when the church re-united with the Primitive Methodist Church and the United Methodist Church to form the Methodist Church of Great Britain.

It is thought that this church building was in use until 1991 when the Methodist Church joined with the United Reformed Church to form Christchurch, in a building a few hundred yards south on Needham Market High Street.
