As the population of Bolton expanded, Duke's Alley chapel was formed from the over-spill from Bank Street Chapel. It was an Independant (Protestant) chapel founded in April 1753 and originally known as "Oliver Chapel". The chapel ws built in Chapel Alley, off Deansgate.
The Chapel later became Bank Street Uniterian Chapel.
It was too small, so rebuilt in 1863 as St. George's Road Congregational Church.
