A well situated detached Methodist Chapel, with great potential for a variety of alternative usages (subject to Planning Permission), located just outside the rural hamlet of Morton and the village of Llynclys.

Description - Halls are favoured with instructions to offer Morton Methodist Chapel for sale by Public Auction on 30th July at 3pm.

Morton Methodist Chapel is a well situated detached Chapel, with great potential for a variety of alternative usages (subject to Planning Permission), located just outside the rural hamlet of Morton and the village of Llynclys.

The Chapel, we understand, was constructed in 1838 as a single cell Wayside Chapel, and now offers accommodation of great charm and character, which retains numerous original features including the pulpit, and timber panelling to walls. There is good head height, making provision of a second floor possible (subject to Planning Consent).

There is scope, therefore, for adapting the Chapel according to ones individual requirements, possibly in to a dwelling/studio/office/showroom etc. (subject to Planning Consent).

Outside, there is a tarmacadam path leading to the front door with two gravelled areas to each side. The site is retained by stone walling to one side and brick walling to the front with wrought iron work on top.

Halls, the sole selling agents, strongly recommend an inspection of the Chapel to appreciate the possibilities that it has to offer.

Situation - Morton Methodist Chapel is situated just outside the rural hamlet of Morton and the village of Llynclys. It is approximately 2.3 miles from the well known estate village of Knockin which has a good range of local amenities for a village of its size. The Chapel is, also, within easy motoring distance of the larger centre of Oswestry (4 miles) and the county towns of Shrewsbury (17 miles) and Chester (30 miles), all of which, have a more comprehensive range of amenities of all kinds.

Directions - From Shrewsbury, proceed to the village of Knockin via the A5 and the B4396. Continue through the village of Knockin in the direction of Llynclys for approximately 3 miles and Morton Methodist Chapel will be found on the left hand side, identified by a Halls for sale board.

From Oswestry, proceed south on the A483 to Llynclys crossroads. Turn left at Llynclys crossroads and continue for approximately 0.5 of a mile and the chapel will be found on the right hand side, identified by a Halls for sale board.
