Re: Primitive Methodist Chapel, Accrington

Hi folks – interesting thread you started Mrs B!

The photo of the Primitive Methodist Chapel (c/o Atarah #21 ) looks like it is situated opposite Britcliffe Row inWhalley Road.

Take a look at the interesting link below of the Britcliffe Family history.
There is photograph which shows Britcliffe Row with the corner of the above Church wall #21 in the foreground.

THE HERBERT BRITCLIFFE MEMORIAL GENEALOGY WEBSITE

There is a later picture of Britcliffe row here:-

WHALLEY ROAD. - Accrington Gallery

Note that the Church wall is different and also there is a gas street lamp.

Perhaps the Britcliffes funded the building of one of the Chapels?
