Bawtry Heritage Group :-
' Bawtry Heritage Group consists of people who have an interest in the very rich history and heritage of Bawtry, which is a small market town in the very south of South Yorkshire adjacent to Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire.'
Mr Mick McGuire of the Bawtry Heritage Group has written a comprehensive history of Bawtry Methodist Chapel – as a building rather than Methodism. Doncaster Methodist Circuit is honoured to have been given permission to share this document and thank Mr McGuire for his tireless research.
