2. Incorporates a scheduled Ancient Monument, namely the original facade of St Mary's chapel on Wakefield Bridge. Early-mid C18 garden house altered to form a boathouse and to accommodate the old chapel facade which was replaced by a reproduction in 1847. This stands above a broad, segmental-arched boat entrance with cut voussoirs. Five bays. Doorways alternate with tracery panels in ogee crocketed frames within gables. Slender panelled buttresses. Narrow outer bays have niches above. Frieze of five relief panels of life of Virgin is very badly weathered and the parapet mostly missing.
