Underhill Methodist Church, Methodist church in Fortuneswell, England
Underhill Methodist Church is a church building in Fortuneswell, England, featuring Victorian architectural elements including detailed stonework and prominent stained glass windows displaying biblical scenes. The structure shows crafted details that reflect the religious purpose of the space.
The Methodist chapel was established in 1793 by Robert Carr Brackenbury and replaced by the current church building in 1899. The new structure represented the growth and stronger financial position of the Methodist community in the area.
