Description

The Chapel at Northern Cemetery is a cemetery chapel built in 1900, designed in the Gothic Revival style. It is constructed from rockfaced stone with ashlar dressings and features slate roofs. The building has a plinth, buttresses, and coped gables. Its layout includes a nave and chancel, a vestry, an external south aisle, a south-west tower with a spire, and a west porch.

On the exterior, the chancel has a single bay with a traceried pointed arched east window that has five lights. The vestry to the south features a flat-headed window with three lights on the north side and a single lancet and pointed arched door on the east. The nave consists of three bays, with a segment-arched doorway on the north flanked by flat-headed traceried windows, each with three lights. The west end has a truncated pointed arched window with five lights. The south aisle also has three bays and a coped parapet, with a central segment-arched doorway flanked by buttresses and three-light segment-headed windows beyond.

The square south-west tower has three stages, angle buttresses, and an octagonal broach spire with four gabled lucarnes. It features pointed arched doorways on the south and west sides, with slit lights on each side. The bell stage includes a pointed arched triple bell opening on each side. The west porch has angle buttresses and a coped parapet, with a central doorway flanked by single segment-headed windows, and a similar doorway to the north.

Inside, the chapel has brick walls with ashlar bands and dressings, and common rafter roofs supported on corbels. The chancel features a keel moulded arch with double shafts and a hood mould, along with a pointed arched door to the south. The nave contains segment-headed double doors to the north, south, and west, as well as patterned stained glass windows. Notable fittings include the original choir stalls and a clergy desk.
