Description

Chapel Mill is a former chapel that was converted into a textile mill in 1946. It was originally built around 1880. The building is constructed of brick with stone dressings and has a Welsh slate roof. The facade facing Park Green is three storeys high, featuring a central range of four windows, with lower flanking blocks that were once entrance porches, each containing a single window. There are entrance doors on either side, framed by stressed architraves. The upper windows are round-arched and set in stone architraves with keystones, a stone sill band, and a string course. The lower windows are four-pane sashes also within stressed architraves. A modillion cornice runs along the top, with a shallow central pediment. Each side has return elevations with six windows, featuring twelve-pane sash windows on two storeys between plain pilasters. There are two apparently re-sited late 18th-century doorcases located in the northern return and at the rear of the entrance block.
