The Methodist Chapel, Styal Village
The Methodist Chapel, Styal Village
The Greg family (owners of Quarry Bank Mill) were Unitarians and built the nearby Norcliffe Chapel in Styal village in 1823. At around the same time, Methodist workers at the mill sought a place of worship, and the Gregs converted this former grain store (probably dating from the late eighteenth century) into a Methodist Chapel for their use.

It is a Grade II Listed Building (LinkExternal link - British Listed Buildings)
