Full Description
The Wesleyans have a small chapel at Weston upon Trent that was built in 1846. (1)
The Wesleyan Methodist Chapel at Weston upon Trent has a three-bay front, with a tablet above the former entrance. The tablet has cherubs' heads supporting an ogee canopy with finial, and is inscribed 'EBENEZER WESLEYAN CHAPEL 1846'. (2, 3)
Examination of modern maps show that the building is still in use as a place of worship. It has had a small extension to the western elevation, which is now the entrance to the church [2011]. (4)
