Non-Conformists, Stockton

In July 1700 the house of Richard King was licensed as a meeting house possibly for the Baptists while in November 1812 a tenement occupied by Keziah Occulstone was licensed for the Independents probably associated with those in Codford. No chapel was built by either group although there were a few dissenters in the late 18th and early 19th centuries and there were three families of Independents in 1864. A small dissenters school existed in 1859.
