Tunstall’s Wesleyan Methodist Chapel in Wesley Place (now Wesley Street) replaced a chapel built near America Street in the 18th century.
Opened in 1835. the Chapel in Wesley Place was a large brick building with a portico supported by four stone pillars. It could accommodate over 1,000 worshippers and was lit by gas lamps.
In 1838 a Sunday School was erected on land behind the chapel. Five or six years later, a Wesleyan Day School opened in the building. The day school became a Board School in 189o. It closed four years later when Wolstanton School Board opened High Steet Schools.
