The history of nonconformism in Minshull goes back to at least the time of Oliver Cromwell and the rule of the Commonwealth.

The forest crowds up to the churchyard here, and yews and oaks overhang the lychgate.

Built in 1692, by the Thynne family (now Marquess of Bath), the church houses many 'Maidens Garlands' from late 1700s.

In the 1930s Arthur Mee realised that there were very few communities that had not suffered military fatalities in the First World War. He coined the term ‘Thankful villages’ to describe them and Minting is one such village.

Building on the church began during the 12th century and it has been the centre of religious life of the village for over 800 years.

Mitcham Methodist Church was designed by the architect Edward Mills (1915–1998) and built in 1958-9.
