Sarah Bembridge, born Sarah Kirkland; also named Sarah Harrison (12 August 1793 – 4 March 1880) was a Primitive Methodist itinerant preacher who established a reputation before the church was formally founded. She established the church in Nottingham and extended its reach in Derby. She made a significant impact in Hull, but she decided to establish herself back in her home village of Mercaston in Derbyshire.
