Full Description
According to Bulmer's Directory, the Primitive Methodists had a chapel in Wessington Village, erected in 1849, at a cost of about £100, and will seat about 100. It was in the Alfreton circuit. (1)
There is a Primitive Methodist Chapel situated in Wessington on the 1st edition 25" Ordnance Survey map of c. 1880, presumably that referred to by Bulmer is 1895. (2)
Modern maps appear to show this building as still extent, but no longer used as a place of worship. (3)
