Description
Wycliffe Congregational Chapel, built in 1849 and designed by architect Edward Walters of Manchester, is a Gothic-style building. It features small coursed stone with ashlar dressings and has a modern roof. The chapel has flanking sections with flights of steps leading to arched doorways that are topped with dripmoulds and have foliated terminals. Above these doorways is a window with two cusped lancets below a quatrefoil, also with a dripmould. The central section of the chapel projects forward and has a gable with a window consisting of four cusped lancet lights. The building includes buttresses and has blocked basement windows. It is surrounded by iron railings and four gabled piers. The side elevation has five bays above basement openings, along with additional buttresses. Wycliffe Congregational Chapel is part of a visual group with Nos 68 to 72 (even) opposite, which are of local interest.
