Before Wesley Chapel was built in Spring |gardens/Abbey Street, the members met in a room called The madder Room which was owned by the Hargreaves of Broad Oak works which was in Grange Lane behind where the chapel was built. Madder is a natural product, perhaps a leaf or stem of a plant ,which is used for the juice, a dye, which is extracted from it.
