Parkview Chapel: Parkview Chapel is an Independent Evangelical Church.
The present building was opened in November 1988 but a Church, formerly known as the Gospel Hall, has been on this site for about 150 years.

"We meet together as Christians to worship God and learn lessons for life from The Bible. We are everyday people who have found that; knowing Jesus Christ gives us meaning in life, strength in hard times and hope for the future."


The Chapel of Ease: In the year 1400 Botesdale was in the parish of Redgrave and the inhabitants of the small hamlet of Botesdale would have worshipped in the parish church of Redgrave. However, around this time, the people of Botesdale erected a small chapel on this site. Around 1500-1510 it became a chantry chapel endowed by Sir John Sheriff of Wattisfield. In 1561 the chapel became the Nicholas Bacon Grammar School and an adjoining house was added to accommodate the schoolmaster. In the 1800s the school was restored as a church and the adjoining house became a private residence.
