New build

The building has been designed and will be erected under the immediate superintendence of the Rev. J. Mould, circuit minister, who for the last twenty years has had considerable experience chapel building. It will be a plain but neat-looking structure, in the Italian style of architecture, with commodious vestries attached, and calculated seat about 280 persons. Underneath the chapel will be a school capable of accommodating about children. There will also be a cellar for the heating apparatus. The total cost is estimated at from £700 to £800. The contractors for the stone and brickwork are Messrs. Fletcher, Hardman, and Smith, of Radcliffe; and for the woodwork, Mr. Howarth, of Ramsbottom.
