Methodist
Chapel built in 1870 by Mr William JOHNSON, on his own land. This
was used until 1909 when the property had to be sold, on Mr JOHNSON's
death. Mr George ENGLISH then got involved with fundraising, and £95
was raised to build a new one-roomed Chapel of brick and slate, which
cost £100. By 1912 all debts had been paid. By 1958 the Chapel was
considered too small and so the current Chapel was built on its'
current site. The Old Chapel was bought by Mr E. KING and converted into 2 houses for farmworkers, and subsequently into the Bed and Breakfast establishment it is at present. Bethany. Crimmond. Original wooden house built in the 1930's. Subsequently rebuilt / enlarged(?). Belle Vue. Built in 1970's. Sea. Seadene. Seaholme. Seacroft.
