A house was licensed for Methodists' meetings in 1783. A building licensed for meetings in 1836 may have been used by Primitive Methodists for whom a chapel was built in South Street in 1843. Afternoon and evening services were held there on Sundays in 1851; average attendance was 75 people. The chapel closed c.1965 and was demolished in 1970.
The Wiltshire and Swindon archive holds a document which is an agreement to lease premises for use as a chapel. This is probably the building referred to above, as it belonged to Robert Barnett of South Street. His piece of land is marked on the tithe award map in the same place as the chapel appears on later maps. The document describes a building previously used as a club room and afterwards as a woodhouse. It measured 41 feet long by 14 feet wide and was to be used as a Chapel Meeting House or school room.
A house at Stoke Farthing was licensed for meetings of Methodists in 1780 and probably again in 1783. In 1851 Primitive Methodists met in a house there.
