Wesley Chapel, said to be Darlington County's oldest Methodist church and thought to have been founded in 1789, was the site of early camp meetings. By 1802 the church was known as Gully Meetinghouse and was located about 1 1/2 miles north. The site here was obtained from Jesse and John Clements in 1832, the church was renamed Wesley Chapel in 1834, and the present sanctuary was built in 1908.
