Port St.Mary Methodist Chapels

Originally two chapels existed - a Wesleyan chapel in High Street where the Garden of Remembrance now stands, the other, at the bottom of Loch Road, whose site is now occupied by a garage. New buildings were erected around the turn of the century: one in Bay View Road, sold in 1970, and the Mount Tabor church.
