The 1878 Primitive Methodist magazine records the laying of the foundation stones for a new Primitive Methodist chapel and school at Colne Road, Burnley. The 1879 Primitive Methodist magazine contains a note of the opening of the chapel .
The Ordnance Survey map shows a Primitive Methodist chapel on the eastern side of Colne Road, between Rylands Street and Ford Street. The building still exists on Street View in 2018 in retail use. It has a new front, but the rear still looks very much like a chapel.
