Rosemount Methodist Church Centenary Celebration

The following comes from the Rosemount Methodist Church Centenary Celebration booklet of 1852-1952.
It shows the programme of events between Saturday June 21st to Sunday July 6th...

The range of celebrations shows how popular the church was at this particular time in its history.







Many thanks to Werneth Low for sharing this booklet.
Much appreciated indeed. :)

Rosemount Chapel Interior

Here is a lovely postcard sent to us by Werneth Low.
It shows the interior of Rosemount Chapel in Flowery Field.
It was quite similar to the old Zion Congregational interior.

I was christened in this chapel :)



Many thanks for the loan of the postcard.
Much appreciated.

Rosemount Primitive Methodist Chapel

The following was taken from 

the Annals of Hyde and District. 

 

The church was founded in 1875.
The Chapel was demolished and the congregation moved into the adjacent former school (also merging with Trinity Methodists) in 1977.

I was christened at Rosemount and took part in a few pantomimes there in the late 1960's. I would love to see any photos of these.

I'm glad to report that the church is still going strong.

 Thanks to A M Berrell  for the photos.

Mystery Photos

Below are two photographs that were taken on Old Road in Flowery Field . You can see Rosemount Church at the top right of the photos.
What we don't know is what the parade was for. We believe they were taken circa late 1970's /early 1980's.

Any ideas? Please let us know !


Love the old United Co-operative Dairies milk float !!
