Yeh the Sally Ann came from that church but it has got to have a name.

Sally-Army chapels never had names, and they were not dedicated to any saints, they were called things like "Heeley Division", Park Corps or "Stocksbridge Corps".

The one in town was called the "Citadel" as it was the senior place of worship in the area. that's now on Psalter lane.

Kent Road Chapel was opened in 1896, first known as "The Adams Memorial Hall", it was later used by the Salvation Army.
