Inspired Sundays: Chapel Door...

One of the side doors at Chadkirk  Chapel. There are records of a chaplain at or maybe from Chadkirk in 1347. The chapel fell into decay, passed through a succession of owners and was used as a stable. For a time it was used by Nonconformists who were ejected during the reign of Queen Anne. It again became neglected and was "in a ruinous condition" until in 1747 it was taken over once again by the Church of England and restored. Further repairs were carried out in 1761 and 1860. In 1876 there was a restoration when much of the furniture was removed.The Chapel was declared redundant in 1971 and was acquired by Bredbury and Romiley Urban District Council. The Chapel was restored in 1995 and is now open as a visitor attraction. Taking part in Inspired Sundays.
