He entered into partnership later around 1891 with Thomas Walter Francis Newton as his partner, and until the death of Newton in 1903, they traded as Newton and Cheatle.

In later life he lived in Chalford, Four Oaks, Birmingham. He died on 29 November 1941 at Woodleigh Nursing Home, Wylde Green.[2] He left an estate of £16,329 9s. 10d (equivalent to £742,100 in 2016).[3]
