Originally this single-storey stone-built property formed part of the outbuildings (byre, stable and turnip house) of Monkseaton Village Farm dating back to at least the 18th century. The building first came into use as a place of worship in 1899 when it was purchased by local dignitary and benefactor Col. T.W. Elliott, of nearby Monkseaton Cottage https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6765202, who converted the building into an Anglican church which in about 1913 came into the possession of the Methodist Church.
