Description
The Hearse House in St. Peter's Churchyard, dated 1852, is constructed of orange brick in English garden wall bond, with a roof made of Kerridge stone-slate and a stone ridge. The building has a rectangular plan and is a single storey with a two-bay east front. The left bay features a stone plaque that reads, "THE GROUND WITHIN THIS WALL WAS ADDED TO THE CHURCHYARD AND CONSECRATED A.D. MDCCCLVI. REV.H.PEARSON LLB VICAR," along with the names of the churchwardens and committee. The right bay has a two-centred brick arch that contains a heavy door divided into vertical panels. The right end has another plaque that reads, "Robert Wright, William Bullock, William Barker, George Godwin. Church Wardens 1852." This structure likely replaced the building mentioned in the lychgate inscription. It is listed for its group value only.
