​During 1881 the Shakespeare Street Methodist Free Churches circuit rented a joiners shop in Edwin Street then being vacated by a band of mission workers known as 'Hallelujah Volunteers'. A society was formed and in a few months there was a Sunday evening congregation of over 100. After a year an additional room was taken to accommodate the over-crowded Sunday School.
Then a plot of land on Hungerhill Road was leased on which a corrugated iron chapel was erected and opened in 1885, to which the work was transferred. About this time the New Connexion began work in the neighbourhood and in 1895 built a new chapel in Sycamore Road. After the union of the New Connexion and Methodist Free Churches in 1907 the two societies amalgamated in the Sycamore Road premises.
​The iron chapel on Hungerhill Road was then sold to the Baptists who used it until 1937 when it was sold to the Vicar and Churchwardens of St Ann's Church. The building was demolished in the late 1960's. (information from 'In Every Generation' by Rowland C Swift)
