  • Methodist and Nonconformist Chapels in Cornwall Guidance and Assessment Framework Summary
    Methodist and Nonconformist Chapels in Cornwall Guidance and Assessment Framework Summary Historic England, in collaboration with Cornwall Council and the Methodist Church, has produced guidance to help congregations, new owners and professional advisors make informed decisions about how to adapt and make changes to nonconformist chapels. The Assessment Framework provides a stepped approach to establish what is special about chapels and their associated buildings, as well as the contributions made by their surroundings to the experience of place. This is in order to understand the significance, the contribution made by its setting and the historic character of each chapel. Understanding these factors early in the process will help to determine what capacity there is for change and indicate the nature of change that will be least harmful. Real examples of different types of works undertaken in nonconformist places of worship is provided within this guidance to show that even where change has occurred, the buildings can continue to contribute positively to what makes them special. The document is aimed at: congregations that are looking to use their buildings differently; new owners in cases where worship has ceased, who are considering alternative uses; professional advisors who are helping to inform congregations or new owners on the approach to change. The focus of the guidance is on Cornwall which has a rich Methodist history but is experiencing a growing trend of chapel closures. This is placing an increased pressure on the buildings and their fabric to accommodate new roles and uses. Although, the emphasis of the Assessment Framework is on Cornwall, the same format can be applied to all nonconformist places of Front cover: worship throughout the country.

  • Nonconformist Places of Worship Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary
    Nonconformist Places of Worship Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which lack such a summary. This can either be where the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. Many of these are what might be thought of as ‘new heritage’, that is they date from after the Second World War. ‘Nonconformist’ has long been used as a description of Protestant Christians in England and Wales who were not part of the Church of England. Among the numerous denominations are the Baptists, Methodists, Quakers and the Salvation Army. By the mid-nineteenth century their chapels and meeting houses, the subject of this brief introduction, outnumbered the buildings of the Church of England’s. While many chapels are now disused or have seen conversion, they remain characteristic and often notable buildings in settlements in all parts of the country. This guidance note has been written by Christopher Wakeling and edited by Paul Stamper. It is one is of several guidance documents that can be accessed at HistoricEngland.org.uk/listing/selection-criteria/listing-selection/ihas-buildings/ Published by Historic England August 2016.

  • Cadw Seminar on Redundant Chapels
    Capel CYMDEITHAS TREFTADAETH Y CAPELI THE CHAPELS HERITAGE SOCIETY CYLCHLYTHYR / NEWSLETTER 25 GWANWYN / SPRING 1995 CADW SEMINAR ON REDUNDANT CHAPELS On 29 November 1994, a one day seminar was held at the Norwegian Church Centre, Cardiff, organised on behalf of Cadw by the Wales Council for Voluntary Action and attended by about forty people, including representatives of Capel, various statutory and voluntary bodies interested in heritage questions, religious denominations and local authorities. The objective of the conference was 'to look at the impact of redundancy on the best... of Wales' chapels and to explore the need to identify a mechanism in the voluntary sector which would care for the best of our historic chapels when no other use can be found for them'. In 1993 the Welsh Affairs Committee in its report The preservation of historic buildings and ancient monuments in Wales recommended the establishment of a fund to care for redundant chapels in Wales. In its response , the Welsh Office confirmed its commitment to providing a mechanism to care for the best redundant religious buildings for which no other arrangement could be made and undertook to meet 70% of the cost of caring for redundant chapels of outstanding historic or architectural interest. The response envisaged that the mechanism would be in the voluntary sector and engage in its own fund-raising, probably as a charitable trust,.on the lines of the Historic Chapels Trust established recently in England. Given its independent nature, it would be inappropriate for the Welsh Office to establish the mechanism directly. It was hoped to identify people in the voluntary sector with interest and appropriate skills who might be prepared to join together to take on the responsibilities of running such a fund.

  • 19Th- and 20Th-Century Roman Catholic Churches Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary
    19th- and 20th-Century Roman Catholic Churches Introductions to Heritage Assets Summary Historic England’s Introductions to Heritage Assets (IHAs) are accessible, authoritative, illustrated summaries of what we know about specific types of archaeological site, building, landscape or marine asset. Typically they deal with subjects which lack such a summary. This can either be where the literature is dauntingly voluminous, or alternatively where little has been written. Most often it is the latter, and many IHAs bring understanding of site or building types which are neglected or little understood. Many of these are what might be thought of as ‘new heritage’, that is they date from after the Second World War. For over two hundred years after the Act of Uniformity (1559) outward observance of the Roman Catholic faith was illegal in England. The building of public places of worship did not resume until the end of the 18th century, gathering pace after Catholic Emancipation (1829) and the restoration of the hierarchy (1850). The 20th century saw accelerated expansion. This is therefore a relatively modern building stock, with approximately two thirds of more than 3,000 churches dating from the 20th century, and from the 1950s and 1960s in particular. Although there are stylistic crossovers with Anglican and, to a lesser extent, Nonconformist church design, Catholic churches have a distinct character, driven in large part by liturgical function. The building type has evolved over the years to meet changing liturgical and other needs.
