ROTHLEY PRIMITIVE METHODIST CHAPEL

This was situated in Mountsorrel Lane, Rothley, but in 1995 the interior was converted to a private house whilst retaining the facade.
The congregation was almalgamated with the Rothley Wesleyan Methodists in 1964 with the Howe Lane Chapel being used for worship and the Mountsorrel Lane Chapel used as a Sunday School and activities until its closure in 1969.

The Primitive Methodists had financial problems as long ago as 1857 as shown from their magazine article:
"Rothley-At this place our Society had been in a very low state; our congregation was very small and the chapel debt amounting to £197 pressed heavily. It was therefore determined to lower the debt to £37. The case was presented to the General Chapel Fund Committee who kindly promised £10. We have succeeded, by a general canvas of the village and neighbourhood and by the assistance of our members in the circuit, in raising the remainder. Since then our congregation has increased fourfold; sinners have been converted and the Society increased. Praise the Lord!"
