Description
The South Chapel at Whitworth Cemetery is a cemetery chapel built in the late 1870s, designed by architects Maxwell and Tuke. It is part of a matching set of three chapels. The structure is made of rock-faced sandstone and features a slate roof with bands of green slates and red ridging tiles. There is a gabled dormer window on the south side and a ridge chimney. The chapel has a T-plan layout, consisting of a small nave with a north transept, and is designed in the High Victorian Gothic style. The west gable includes seven lancet windows, a decorative band, and a plate-traceried rose window above.
The interior has not been inspected, but it likely features an arch-braced kingpost roof with curved struts, similar to the other two chapels in the set.
