Welles Street: DEBRA shop and former methodist chapel
A charity shop. Behind the facade can be seen the former Primitive Methodist Chapel, built in 1857 and closed in 1950. Methodism must have been strong in South Cheshire at one time, as the circuit apparently covered 28 village churches and chapels (source: http://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Wheelock,_Cheshire )

Former St Mary's Hall, Welles Street, Sandbach
I previously described the building behind the present row of shops as a former Methodist chapel that closed in 1950 Image Since 2014 the roof of the shop has been rebuilt at a lower pitch, revealing the gable of the old chapel more clearly and a previously hidden date stone of 1951 when it became an (Anglican) church hall. The charity shop has also closed in that period.

Since 2014 the roof of the shop has been rebuilt at a lower pitch, revealing the gable of the old chapel more clearly and a previously hidden date stone of 1951 when it became St Mary's (Anglican) church hall soon after the Methodists ceased using it for worship in 1950. See Image for context.
