Wesley Place is featured in the 1854-1855 Belfast Street Directory. It contains this listing: “Wesleyan Methodist Meeting house – ministers, Rev. Mr McCoy, and Rev. Mr Huston”. This would seem to indicate the street takes its name from this Methodist building. Wesley Street appears in Henderson's Directory, 1856. It is now much shorter than originally as it has been built on. There are no longer any properties which have this, meaning that it no longer appears on Royal Mail Postcode Finder and other listings.
