Title
The Centenary Primitive Methodist Church in Newlyn.
Description
Built in 1927 at a cost of £5,047. Location is Gwavas Road, sometimes called Church Lane in earlier times. Access is from St Peter's Hill, Newlyn Town.
The member's original chapel, built 1835, was nearby in Boase Street, still retained then as a Sunday School.
The church was built on the site of some old cottages, one of which was the birthplace of William Lovatt, well-known Chartist benefactor. The flags suggest the date of about 1928-1929, soon after construction.
