This building has the date of 1857 at the front; a datestone in the apex at the rear inscribed "New Methodist Chapel 1798" is believed to have been transferred from the original building which had to be demolished for a road widening scheme. The foundation stone was laid on 2 June 1857 by J. Whitaker of Higher Hurst near Ashton, in the presence of the Mayor of Nottingham.
