Sandbach Methodist Church


The Past, The Present and The Future


The Past

The current church building was erected in 1873, although the schoolrooms (previously the Sunday School and Day School) predates the church building. Singing in the church was originally led by a harmonium, but in 1889 this was replaced by the current organ which had been previously installed in Stretford Town Hall.

The Present

Maintenance of the church has continued in recent years. The former choir vestry has been converted into a small chapel (the Reade Chapel). A new amplification system has been installed, with a loop system for the hard of hearing and facilities for recording church services. In 1999, the church was extensively re-decorated, and the electrical system updated (including new lighting). In 2000, a wheelchair ramp was installed leading to the main doors at the front of the church.

There has recently been a major refurbishment of our schoolrooms. For information on this project, please see our Wesley Centre pages.
