The Grade II listed building https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1356841 on Newton Street was designed by Alfred Waterhouse and opened in 1881. In 2006 the congregation, unable to afford the upkeep of the building, sold it to developers for conversion into apartments. The deal involved the developer building a new church on land behind the old church. The new church is now called The Studio and hosts a number of community services.
