Full Description
According to Bulmer's Directory, there was a Wesleyan Chapel at Upper Town, built in 1868, at a cost of £100, exclusive of the site, which was given by Mr. John Holmes, and a deal of gratuitous labour. It could seat 100 persons, and was in the Matlock Bridge circuit. (1)
There is a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel situated in Uppertown on the 1st edition 25" Ordnance Survey map of c. 1880, presumably that referred to by Bulmer in 1895. (2)
Modern maps shown this building is still extant but no longer used as a place of worship. (3)
