Grange Methodist Church
-
Description
the 400-strong community of Grange started meeting in a shack on the Promenade, then in a cottage in Cart Lane, and finally a house in Berners Close. In 1871 a plot of land in Kents Bank Road was purchased and the Methodist Church was built, designed by architect Ernest Bates of Manchester. The foundation stone was laid on 11 September 1874 and the church opened for worship in 1876. The original building consisted of the church, a choir vestry and a meeting room in the organ loft. The premises were used extensively for worship, prayer meetings, temperance meetings, fellowship gatherings and Sunday School. By 1903 more accomodation was needed so a hall was built to the south side..... -
