Description
Bursea Chapel is a chapel built between 1867 and 1872 by William Butterfield. It is constructed of red and black brick with stone dressings and has a plain tile roof. The building is single storey and consists of three bays.
On the west end, there are three trefoiled windows with a bell situated below extended eaves. The south side features a gabled porch with a mosaic on the gable end, and two sets of four trefoiled lights are flanked by buttresses. The north side has a similar arrangement, including an external stack opposite the porch.
The east end displays three stepped trefoiled lights, also flanked by buttresses, with a diaper pattern in black brick above an ashlar band and on the gable ends. The gable coping and shaped kneelers add to the architectural detail of the chapel.
