Full Description
The 1st ed. 25" OS map c. 1880 shows a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel on Macclesfield Road, Burbage. (1) The chapel was still in use at the beginning of the 20th century. (2, 3)
Examination of modern maps show a slightly smaller building in the same location as the chapel. This could indicate that the building has been demolished but it is also possible that some of the original building may survive as this smaller building. (4)
The Wesleyans have a chapel here - a neat stone edifice, capable of seating 180 persons. (5)
