Description

The Former Methodist New Connexion Chapel is a building that has also served as a public hall and later as a motor showroom. It was designed by William Cole for the Methodist New Connexion and dates back to the 1830s. The chapel is constructed of stucco and features a grey-green hipped slate roof. The façade is distinguished by four Corinthian columns in antis, positioned between projecting wings. Each wing has a round-arched window with 20 panes beneath the transom and a radial-bar fanlight above. The building is adorned with an entablature that includes an architrave, frieze, and dentil cornice, topped by a pediment that stands proud of the panelled attic. The hipped roof has a ridge that is at a right angle to the front of the building. Internal features are not specified. Historically, in 1836, Joseph Hemingway regarded this chapel as the most handsome in Chester.
