Tower Street Chapel, Kings Lynn, Wesleyan Methodist

The church did not have a graveyard.

It was founded in 1812. The congregation moved here from "North Clough Lane" which had become too small [from White's 1854 dir.]. It closed in 1965.

The Wesleyan Methodist church was formed in the 18th century from religious societies founded by John Wesley and his preachers. It suffered many secessions, but was the largest Nonconformist denomination in the 19th century. In 1932 the Wesleyan Methodists joined with the Primitive Methodists and the United Methodists to form the Methodist Church of Great Britain.
