This is a list of chapels that had been registered by 1867, derived from ‘A list of places of meeting for public religious worship, certified to the Registrar General’.   Remember that registration was not compulsory. A further four MNC and seven UMFC places of worship are known from other sources to have been open in 1867.

As registration was valid until cancelled, however, there may be duplication: i.e.  both the old and new chapels in a place may be listed, as at Emneth. We have also discovered that the official location may not be the same as the name by which the chapel is commonly described.

Unless otherwise stated each of these places of worship is described as a chapel.

The numbers on the list relate to places, and match those on the map. The base map is provided under this licence
