Milborne St Andrew

This chapel is now a holiday let.

Dorset History Centre has records at NM-2/C/1/TS/4/1 and NM-2/S/15/TS/5/2 which include ‘papers concerning the purchase and building of the new church, 1866-1867’ so I assume there was a previous building.

The datestone on the chapel is 1867.

Another batch is ‘Papers concerning the sale of the church. 1989′.

I have just spotted ‘ Certificate of registration of a house in the occupation of Mary Barton in Milborne Stileham as a Place of Worship’. 1823.

Milborne Stileham, once a separate settlement on the other side of the turnpike road (now the A354), was incorporated into Milborne St Andrew in 1890 according to https://www.milbornestandrew.org.uk/
