SO5974 : Former Primitive Methodist Chapel

taken 5 years ago, near to Knowle, Shropshire, England

Former Primitive Methodist Chapel
Former Primitive Methodist Chapel
A "tin tabernacle" built in 1879 and closed in 1917 when it was replaced by a more permanent building (see SO5973 : 4 and 5 Tenbury Road). Even so, whilst showing some signs of rust, it would appear to remain in reasonable condition.
Tin tabernacles

"Tin tabernacles" (or more properly "iron churches") were produced in large numbers from the mid 19th Century into the early 20th Century. They were built with a timber frame, clad with galvanised and corrugated iron, and lined with tongue and groove boarding. Prepared as prefabricated kits, they were also exported to many countries overseas.
