In 2013 there is no trace of the site of this chapel. In 1882-3 the building was sanctioned by the Primitive Methodist Connexion West Midland District Building Committee, and also building of a school room at Walford near by. In 1920 the Iron Building from Adley Moor was removed to Leinthall Starkes.

 

Herefordshire Through Time monument search web site states :- A green corrugated iron Methodist chapel built in 1884. It was sold in 1920 and moved to Leinthall Starkes and again sold in 1983 to the Tynddol Youth Centre.  Both the chapel and the church at Buckton (see HSM 30629) may have been bought from William Cooper at 761 Old Kent Road, London, a mail order firm dealing with corrugated iron ecclesiastical buildings.
