Deepings St Nicholas.
The Primitive Methodists built a chapel referred to as Littleworth and later
as Hop Pole, on Main Road (now the A16 trunk road) in 1867.
The foundation stone was incorporated into a new chapel on the same site to
seat 150 was built in 1897. An extension added in 1922 has been further
improved at a cost of £95,000 in 2007 to help this small congregation with its
community efforts.
Now that the new extension
is finished , and the vestry revamped as it were, we are now endeavouring to become a community
chapel.
To this end, local inhabitants are being invited to “coffee &
biscuit” mornings…they already support the “fun” evenings we hold monthly.
A
lunch club is due to be started in the near future. Bible study and Fellowship
meetings are held in alternate weeks, and in September we hope to have a “different
service” either on a weekday morning or an evening.
The old vestry, or as it
is now known “Katie’s Room” is open for hire. If interested, please contact
David Wakefield on 01775 760 431.
