    The chapel at Fisher is consistently recorded in all other sources as an Independent chapel. The return to the 1851 Religious Census (HO129/91/16) is signed by John Leng, who had been a Bible Christian minister from 1838 to 1842, including a year in the Chichester Mission, but returned to Chichester as a chairmaker.
