The former Lower Wortley Methodist Church building on Branch Road could be about to have new owners.
WLD reported last March that the 19th century building was available to buy for offers around £275,000.
But the property is now ‘under offer’ to a unnamed potential buyer. A property under offer means a buyer has made an offer that the seller has accepted, but no legal paperwork has been signed, and the sale isn’t yet finalized.
The empty building, which dates back to 1884, is listed for sale ‘with development potential’ on the commercial property website Loopnet and is being earmarked as being suitable for business, educational or religious re-use.
The listing describes the 5,843 sq ft building as: “Lower Wortley Methodist Church is a classic late 19th century Methodist chapel design. It is a rectangular building of solid stone construction. The church fronts Branch Road and there is a small single storey stone extension, dating from the late twentieth century, to its southern side.”
