Loughwood Meeting House

Loughwood Meeting House

Loughwood Meeting House, located at Dalwood, near Axminster, Devon, England, is a 17th-century Baptist meeting house. Today it is a property of the National Trust.

This simple building was built into a hillside by the Baptist congregation of nearby Kilmington in 1653, when they faced prosecution for openly worshipping. The interior dates from the early 18th century.
