Walcot Methodist Chapel

Heritage Open Day: The original ‘Walcot Chapel’ is the oldest Methodist chapel in Bath. It is a place of worship for the congregation of Bath Methodist Church on Sundays and open for other activities and community groups during the week. Walcot Chapel was designed by William Jenkins of London and opened on 30th May 1816, 14 months after the foundation stone was laid. It was the second Methodist building in Bath, the first being in New King Street (now demolished) where the congregation had become too large for the building. Unusually for a Methodist church, the front façade has a Latin inscription ‘Deo Sacrum’.
The organ was originally supplied to the newly opened Bath Assembly Rooms in 1771. It was moved to Walcot Chapel in 1818/19.
