A HISTORY OF LANCASHIRE 



The vicars are prcF.ntcd by a body of five trustees.'' 

 There is a misiion-room called St. Andrew's. A 

 party of seceders built a school-chapel in 1876," but 

 they have died out. 



Methodism was introduced as early as 1805, but 

 became extinct. It was revived about 1852, and 

 the Wesleyan chapel built in 1862 has since been 

 enlarged. The United Free Methodists have had a 



chapel since 1875 and the Primitive Methodists 

 since i S76." 



The Congrcgationalists opened a mission-room in 

 1876 and built a church in 1SS3. This is an 

 offshoot of the Great Harwood Church." 



The Roman Catholic mission was commenced " 

 in 1886, and ten years later the school-chapel of 

 St. Charles was opened.
