Wesley Methodist Church

A Brief History
Methodism has had quite a long tradition in Billinge, dating from the 1840's. A small group of Primitive Methodists began to meet at first in two rented stone cottages, known as the "Cottage Rooms" where they held  their services.

A Chapel was finally erected in 1868 on Main Street where worship continued until a new Church was erected in 1989 on the site of the old Church Hall at the bottom of main Street. If you are looking for further information on the history of Methodism here and Billinge itself, the book "The Billingers" by Richard Donald Lewis (1976) is a good source.

The current membership stands at 21
