	~~'''Free Methodist Chapel'''~~

	Built as a Free Methodist Church in 1837, following a split away from the Wesleyan Methodist Church, which was originally across the road at the bottom of Halifax Lane. The building is not listed, and has now been converted into apartments, having served also as the Luddenden Working Men’s Club. The date stone can just be made out above the main door. The Free Methodist Church was a much more democratic institution than the Wesleyan Methodist Church, and the building is important as it serves as a reminder of the important part played by the Methodist Church in Pennine textile communities such as Luddenden. It was decided that the building was not large enough in 1897, and this led to the building of the Luddenden Methodist Chapel (above) across the other side of the valley.

	~~'''Luddenden Methodist Chapel'''~~

	Unlike the previous buildings, this is not listed, but adds greatly to the architecture of the village. Built in 1902, and closed as a place of worship in 2011, the building was the third methodist chapel built in the village. Originally a Free Methodist Chapel, much of the building work was
	~~done by male members of the congregation, who dug~~
	~~out the foundations and assisted wherever possible.~~

	~~The Chapel was on the top and a school building~~
	~~underneath. For most of the twentieth century, much of the social life of the village was centred on this building.~~
