The first Methodist chapel, now the Methodist schoolroom (shown opposite), was built in 1808 in Corby Road. 

The larger present chapel, shown in the pencil drawing, was added alongside in 1878 with the opening service having taken place on April 13, 1879 as shown in the notice below.

The middle picture opposite was taken in 1952 at the re-opening of the Methodist Church following decoration.

There is also a  former congregational chapel in Main Street, Middleton, which has now been converted into a house.
