Description: | This is the Primitive Methodist Church on Coldwell Street in 1925. Primitive Methodism began in 1811 and was related to, but independent of, Wesleyan Methodism. The first meetings in Felling were held on a thatched cottage belonging to a Mrs. Shepherd in the 1820s. A chapel was later built on the High Street, after land was secured in 1833. In 1864 new premises had been opened in Coldwell Lane and the previous chapel was sold in 1865 to merchant tailor Robert Potts. In 1896 a larger chapel was built next door and the old chapel became the Sunday School. In 1929, a new Sunday School was built at the rear of the site. A new Methodist Chapel was built in 1982. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Rights holder: | Gateshead Council | Subjects: | Methodist Churches and Chapels | Temporal: | name=1920s; start=1920; end=1929; | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Unknown | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
