| Notes |
The Chapel was part of the Burnley Methodist Circuit serving the villages of
Loveclough, Dunnockshaw and Clowbridge.
The building is 200 yards inside Rawtenstall Borough, so marriages came under the
Haslingden District Superintendent Registrar. Marriages in the last few years of its
existence were often conducted at Rakefoot Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, Crawshawbooth.
