This is a list of chapels that had been registered by 1867, derived from ‘A list of places of meeting for public religious worship, certified to the Registrar General’. Remember that registration was not compulsory. As registration was valid until cancelled, however, there may be duplication: i.e. both the old and new chapels in a place may be listed. We have also discovered that the official location may not be the same as the name by which the chapel is commonly described.
Unless otherwise stated each of these places of worship is described as a chapel.
The numbers on the list relate to places, and match those on the map. The base map is provided under this licence
The chapels in Suffolk were part of the First London and the Norfolk and Lynn Districts, and for information about their capacity, go to The Returns of accommodation of 1873 They are also mapped on Plates 1 and 6 of The Wesleyan Methodist Atlas
