Monksthorpe Baptist Chapel, Monksthorpe, Lincolnshire

Dating from 1701 at a time when the early Baptists feared persecution this little chapel is well off the beaten track and was built in the form of a farmyard barn with a thatched roof so it didn't attract attention. It originally had an escape hatch above the pulpit so that the preacher could make good his escape should the necessity occur and to aid this a horse was left tethered outside. The thatched roof was replaced with tiles in 1847.Although some services still take place regular worship at the chapel ceased in the late 1970's and the building now belongs to the National Trust.
