United Methodist Free Church, Ellesmere Road, Ifton Heath, St. Martin's This is a rough sketch of the brick chapel, called "Ebenezer", which was built in 1856. There was a plaque on the wall above the entrance whose inscription was "Ye shall keep the Sabbath and reverence my Sanctuary. Leviticus chapter 26 verse 9. AD 1856." This is possibly the chapel designated "Ifton Heath Chapel" which was registered for the solemnization of marriages on 20th February 1868. The chapel was demolished in 1914 to make way for a new Methodist chapel. The inscribed plaque (above) was removed and was placed in the porch of the new chapel. Grid ref: SJ 326368
