Full Description
The first Primitive Methodist Chapel was built in Mickelover in 1852, and still stands to the east of 25 Park Road, gutted and converted to a garage. 25 Park Road was built in 1901-1905 to replace it, but became redundant as a chapel in 1932. It was used temporarily as an air-raid wardens post in the second world war, then stood empty for a while. In the 1950s it was used as a fish-and-chip shop, before conversion to a house in the 1970s. The land on which the chapel was built was part of Common End Farm, sold to the 16 Trustees of the Primitive Methodist Chapel in 1901. (1)
