The 'Huddersfield exposed' website shows an extract from the 1890 large scale (1:1500) map that labels this building 'Catholic Apostolic Church', and comments that it was already Elim Pentecostal by 1960. It's the only structure (apart from the tunnel vent shafts, one of them seen in the background) to have survived a wide area of demolition in the mid/late 20th century.
