Comments

The former Newlyn Wesleyan Methodist Church property is privately owned. The present owners purchased it about 1975. It is still unclear as to which is the original church, the rendered building or the brick building, according to the present owner. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 29/9/2019.
