The church closed in 1951 but later opened again this time as the Longsight Spiritualist Church. Today the church is known as the Victoria Park Christian Fellowship which was originally based at 64 Daisy Bank Road. Robert Peck, an elder of the church says of the church, "We are an independant Evangelical church and are members of the Evangelical Alliance. In December we acquired the old chapel on Daisy Bank Road which was built in 1913 for Welsh people and probably sold to the Spiritualists in 1953. Many local people are delighted that it has now be restored to Christian worship."

My memory of this church has nothing to do with its religious role. In the early 1950s when I was less than 8 years of age my mother took me to this church one day. We walked by the old Longsight Library, crossed Plymouth Grove and went up Daisy Bank Road, past the old toll booth which was by then abandoned but still on-guard at the entrance to Victoria Park. I remember clearly going to the side of the church and entering through a door which led down into the basement. My mam was going to pick up her ration books. It was an interesting experience to go back there in May of 2000, more than 45 years later, to photograph that same door.
