The Assembly of God church first started around 1913 in a rented room over a shop on the corner of Stockport Road and Cromwell Grove. In 1958 the owners of the shop, then Estelle Modes selling prestigious gowns and dresses for ladies, wanted the room for their expanding business. The assembly were forced to move into temporary accommodation, initially in the Wesleyan Mission which had closed down, situated on the corner of Chapel Street and Rostron Street. They soon moved, hiring a room in the Town Hall. Midweek prayer meetings were held at the Baptist Church, Essex Street; the road later being renamed as Elmsworth Avenue. Land was bought on Marshall Road and the new church opened in 1959. http://www.cromwellhall.co.uk/home.html
