Description
Small shop on corner of Park Road and Heyes Lane, known for many years as 'Constable's', newsagents shop, recently changed use.
This site is shown on the 1838 Tithe Map as 'Methodist Chapel and Yard', which was the first Methodist chapel in Timperley from c 1833.
The current building sits on the same plot and may be the original building.
It is in brick with slate roof, two storeys and one room wide.
The part fronting Park Road has been rebuilt after a car hit the corner, and recently the entrance door has been changed from the Park Road frontage to the side.
There is a side gate into a rear yard, which may be part of the chapel yard referred to in the Tithe award.
