Britain's What's On Event Guide
Walsingham Methodist Chapel
Heritage Open Day: Visit and see a largely unspoilt 18th Century Methodist Chapel in historic Walsingham. Soak in the atmosphere and see our displays. John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist Church, visited Walsingham in 1781. Subsequently, construction of a meeting place started in 1793 and this was opened as the present chapel in 1794. It has been used for worship ever since and is the oldest Methodist Chapel in use in the East of England. 2024 is our 230th anniversary year It remains largely as it was originally built, with its imposing pulpit, balcony and original pews gives a fascinating insight into the past and the centuries after the reformation and before the Shrines were built in the 20th century.
