North Chapel Bishopwearmouth Cemetery

North Chapel in Bishopwearmouth Cemetery is a municipal cemetery chapel that was originally Roman Catholic but is now used by all denominations. It was possibly built in 1856 by Thomas Moore. The chapel is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh slate roof with bands of Lakeland slate, terracotta ridge cresting, an ashlar bellcote, and gable copings.

The structure has a three-bay nave with a south porch and a one-bay apsed chancel, which is defined by buttresses. The polygonal apse has a hipped roof. The gabled porch contains double boarded doors beneath an elliptical lintel, and the timber framing of the gable is topped with a cross finial on the bargeboards.

On the west elevation, there are three paired cusped lancets on a sill string with alternate block jambs, and the elevation is separated by stepped buttresses that rise to a triple bellcote topped with a high pyramidal spirelet and a cross finial. The bellcote features 4-centred-arched cusped corbelling at its center, which forms a canopy for an eroded statue set between the buttresses on a wall bracket.
