Norcliffe Chapel

Norcliffe Chapel is a former Baptist chapel, built in 1823 for Samuel Greg and converted to a Unitarian chapel in 1833. The chancel and porch were added in 1857 for Robert Greg, and a club room was included in 1905. The building is constructed of English garden wall bond red brick with stone dressings and features a Kerridge stone-slate roof with a stone ridge.

The chapel has a 5-bay nave and a 3-bay chancel, with a south-east porch and a club room to the north. A stone plinth and a band at sill level run around the structure. The bays of the nave are divided by later buttresses, which support stone rectangular windows featuring pairs of lancets. The open gabled timber-framed porch has a trefoil-headed entrance and lights. Behind the porch is a 2-centred arched stone doorcase with a pair of studded oak doors. Atop the nave ridge is a square open timber bellcote with a tall pyramidal roof. The chancel has single trefoil lights with label moulds, and the east window consists of 3 lights with a rose in the apex.

Inside, the nave features arch-braced tiebeam trusses that spring from stone corbels. The chancel arch is supported by engaged quatrefoil colonnettes on stone corbels, and there is a trefoil-headed door leading to the vestry. Memorials to the Greg family are simple white marble plaques set on black marble bases. The organ, built in 1882 by Forster and Andrews of Hull, has painted pipes.
