Mapping Methodism – Knave-Go-By Wesleyan Mission room

Categories Mapping Methodism0 Comments

Knave-Go-By (also known as Knave-go-bye or Knave Go By) is a village located on the outskirts of Camborne. This profile of Knave-Go-By Wesleyan Mission Room has been compiled by Jo Lewis and Tony Mansell.

 

Located to the west of Beacon.

Close to Beacon is the hamlet of Knave-go-By and, although but a stone’s throw away, did not escape the attention of Methodist missionary work. The building stands on the left as one enters the hamlet from Beacon. If anyone has any further information about this building and its religious use I would be very pleased to hear about it, as I do not have any early photographic evidence on file. (David Thomas of Camborne)

 

Unknown build date.

1948: Suggested as the closing date by David Easton, Methodist Minister and historian but he also asks the question: “Did this close for worship pre-War?”

The building now a house called The Courtyard, stands on the left as one enters the hamlet from Beacon and is believed to have been the former Wesleyan mission room. The long building is shown on the 1879 maps but not labelled

This is believed to have been the former Wesleyan mission room there, taken very recently. The building stands on the left as one enters the hamlet from Beacon. If anyone has any further information about this building and its religious use I would be very pleased to hear about it, as I do not have any early photographic evidence on file.
