The chapel was originally part of the York Circuit of the Wesleyan Methodist Church. In 1867, it became the head of the new York Wesley Circuit, covering the city west of the River Ouse. In 1932, the Wesleyan Methodists became part of the new Methodist Church of Great Britain, and the chapel headed the revised Wesley Circuit. The chapel closed in 1982, with its congregation transferring to the Central Methodist Church. It was purchased by a congregation linked to the Assemblies of God, and was renamed as the Assembly of God Church, then in 1993 it was renamed as the Rock Church. At this point, it was still part of the Assemblies of God, but aimed to offer a more contemporary expression of worship, with rock music and a dance academy. By 2006, it claimed an average weekly attendance of 250 adults. In 2018, it was again renamed, as QChurch.
