Bethesda Methodist Chapel, Hanley, Methodist chapel in Hanley, England
The Bethesda Methodist Chapel features Renaissance Revival architecture with a stuccoed facade, slate roof, and fluted Corinthian columns at the entrance.
Built in 1887 to replace a smaller chapel, the structure was designed by J.H. Perkins to accommodate 2,500 people during religious services.
The chapel contains a three-manual organ from 1864 and multiple stained glass windows, including a reproduction of William Holman Hunt's artwork.
In 2024, Re-Form Heritage initiated a viability study to transform the chapel into a performance space, community center, or educational facility.
The building stands as one of the largest Nonconformist chapels outside London, with rusticated brickwork on the ground floor and ornate architectural details.
