Around 1797, a group of Kilhamites locked the doors of Mount Zion Methodist Chapel, Ogden and took over the chapel, expelling the
Wesleyans who then founded Illingworth Moor Wesleyan
Chapel.
A Sunday school was started in 1820.
The chapel closed in February 1877, and Illingworth Wesleyan Methodist New Chapel opened in March 1877.
