Full Description
According to Bulmer's Directory, a mission chapel, dedicated to St. John, was erected in Tupton in 1889, at a cost of £1,100, raised by benefactions and subscriptions. (1)
There is a Mission Church dedicated to St John situated on New Street (now Queen Victoria Street) on the 2nd edition 25" Ordnance Survey map of c. 1900, presumable that referred to by Bulmer in 1895. (2)
Modern maps show this building is still extant and in use as a church, with a Sunday School building to the rear, possibly built around the same time as the church as it is shown on the 2nd edition 25" Ordnance Survey map of c. 1900 but not labelled as a Sunday School. (3)
