On the OS 6 inch map, 1888-1913, this first stretch of the road, as far as the canal, is named Chapel Lane, presumably after the Congregational Chapel (now the United Reformed Church); after the canal bridge it is marked as Church Lane. At that time the area was still semi-rural. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=14&lat=52.43744&lon=-1.48469&layers=6&right=ESRIWorld
