About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

St Peter's Methodist Church was built in 1811, replacing an earlier chapel dating from 1764, to which John Wesley had been a frequent visitor. A table used by Wesley can still be seen in the present church. The interior is symmetrical, light and airy, in the style of John Nash, with some handsome plain panelling. The chapel had been noted for its lively choir and orchestra, and live music events continue to take place here.
A graveyard was laid out in front of the building in 1828; in 1903 the gravestones were moved back in front of a wall. The surviving markers are now laid flat, in a grassed plot to the west of the main approach.
The church is sited almost opposite another St Peter's church, St Peter the Apostle in St Peter's Lane.
