In the short term I’ve duplicated this page on both the Staffordshire and Warwickshire pages. Our policy is to include pages in the county they were part of at the time of Methodist Union in 1932, the end of Primitive Methodism as a separate connexion, which would place Glascote in Warwickshire. That’s where it will end up.

Terrington St Clement Methodist New Connexion Chapel, Norfolk
In 1851 Thomas Smith Butler, the Chapel Steward, filled in the forms for the Religious census. He reported that on 31st March the Wesleyan Branch chapel (as they called it) had attracted congregations of 175 in the afternoon and 250 in the evening (H.O. 129/193/44). Which were figures in excess of those given for the Wesleyan and Primitive Methodist chapels in the parish.
