Description
Attercliffe Chapel is a chapel located in Sheffield, dating from around 1629. It was likely built for the Bright family of Carbrook Hall. The chapel was remodeled around 1770 and underwent further rebuilding and remodeling in 1909 by JD Webster. It was restored in 1991. The structure is made of squared dressed stone with ashlar dressings and features a stone slate roof. It has a chamfered plinth, quoins, and coped gables with kneelers.
The chapel is a single-storey, single-unit building. The east end has a four-light transomed lancet window with cusped heads, flanked by single buttresses. The west end is blank. On the south side, there is a shallow Tudor arched doorway with a slate pediment supported by curved brackets, flanked on the left by a monument bracket and on the right by an obelisk tablet with a cartouche. To the left of the doorway, there is a transomed triple lancet window with round-headed lights under a flat head, with single buttresses on either side.
On the north side, there is an oval-headed doorway with a similar pediment to the south side, above which is a datestone inscribed "1629 TA HB". To the right of this doorway, there are two transomed triple lancet windows similar to those on the south side. The interior is rendered and features a late 18th-century strutted king post roof with double purlins.
