Description
The North 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 and is currently used for storage. The chapel is constructed of rock-faced sandstone and features a slate roof with bands of green slates and red ridging tiles, along with a gabled dormer window on the north side and a ridge chimney. The building has a T-plan layout, consisting of a small nave with a south transept, and is designed in the High Victorian Gothic style. The west gable is adorned with seven lancet windows, a decorative band, and a plate-traceried rose window above.
Inside, the chapel features an arch-braced kingpost roof with curved struts.
