Glad Tidings was constructed in 1902, the same year the houses in Coronation Street were built. Though the chapel's main entrance was in Victoria Street, the hall and vestry extended to Coronation Street, and the vestry, a small flat home to the Mission caretaker, had its own side entrance and address of 16 Coronation Street. From 1937 to 1968, when the Mission was demolished due to dwindling congregations, Ena Sharples held the unpaid position of Mission caretaker.

The Hall itself had one floor and was largely wooden, except for a brick front porch. The Hall had a stage but the location of the Mission meant the room didn't get much natural light - the viaduct adjacent to the building blocked the sun through the two stained glass windows.
