The building was constructed in 1858 during Manchester's industrial expansion and reflected the era's religious growth. It was designed by a local architect and formed part of the broader wave of chapel building across the expanding city.
The building served as a community gathering place for many years and still shapes the character of the street today. Its red brick exterior stands out distinctly among the surrounding modern structures.

During the 1980s the building was converted into a recording studio and became a significant location for music production in that era. This transformation showed how historic structures found new purpose in Manchester's changing economy.
