Holwell Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, Leicestershire

Holwell Wesleyan Methodist Chapel was built of stone in 1877. From 1881 to 1901 it seated 150 but this had fallen to 122 by 1911. Could this indicate a conversion from forms to pews? In 1940 the chapel measured 44 feet by 24 feet and seated 100 persons in pews. There was also one schoolroom (22 feet by 12½ feet) but no other rooms.
The chapel was situated on the north side of the village street directly opposite the parish Church (Landranger 129 SK737237)
