Description

The Wesleyan Methodist chapel and school, now partly used for storage and partly unoccupied, was built in 1849. It features painted coursed sandstone rubble and some brick, with a felted stone slate roof. The building has a rectangular plan aligned with the street and is two storeys high with three windows. There is a doorway at the left end with a boarded door, a blocked overlight, and the top half of a lintel that likely resembled those of the windows. Each floor has three 12-pane sash windows, with the ground floor windows positioned relatively high, featuring raised sills and wedge lintels in a flat-arched form with rusticated pseudo-voussoirs and raised keystones. The ground floor windows are now boarded internally. A rectangular stone plaque on the first floor is inscribed "WESLEYAN METHODIST CHAPEL & SCHOOL 1849". The stone gable copings add to the architectural detail. At the rear, the ground floor is covered by 20th-century additions, and the first-floor windows have been blocked with stone. The building forms a group with Nos 29 and 31 to the right.
