The chapel spent many years as a warehouse before the frontage was incorporated into the new bus station with the body of the building being completely rebuilt. The chapel was founded by a splinter group from the existing Congregational chapel who formed a Sion congregation in an existing chapel in 1816 before building a new chapel on the site in 1819. The remaining section is Listed Grade II.
