Later known as Crosland Moor United Methodist Free Church and Blackmoorfoot Road Methodist Church.

Wesleyan Reformers seceded from Wesleyans c1851 but they held onto the chapel in Nabcroft Lane and the Wesleyans had to leave. The chapel was built in Barton Road [later known as Blackmoorfoot Road] in 1855, it was next door to the original building in Nabcroft Lane which continued in use as a Sunday School. The Sunday School was enlarged in 1869 - 1870 and again in 1900, it closed in 1959. The congregation joined with Park Road Methodist Church. The chapel sold in 1962 and part of the proceeds were used to build a new church hall at Park Road Methodist Church.
