Martin Hannant tells us: “In 1903 a Methodist chapel was built on the green at the lower end of Upper Oddington on the initiative of a small group headed by George Kempson, a farmer of Oddington who had withdrawn his support for the parish church. By 1937 the chapel had fallen into disuse and was sold for conversion to a house. In 1941 permission was granted by President of conference to sell the building.”
I cannot find the chapel on historic Ordnance Survey maps. Where was it?

George Kempson was my great grandfather. A favourite quote of my grandmother’s was “In my father’s house are many mansions”.
Thank you for your helpful comment and for the picture, Martin!
The chapel appears on the 1922 OS map.
It is now a private house, The Chapel House, at GL560XG
