Description

This is a chapel, built in 1869 as part of St. John's Hospital, designed by Robert Young with Dr Palmer in the Neo-Norman style. It is constructed from coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and a slate roof with coped gables. The west front features an attached gabled porch with three round-headed lancet windows beneath a single round head with a hood mould, and gabled side porches to the left and right. Above the porch, there is a triple lancet window with a taller central window featuring tracery, columns between, and raised hood moulds. A gabled, pointed arched bellcote sits above. The side wall has six round-headed lancet windows, a raised cill band, and continuous hood moulds, punctuated by seven pilaster buttresses. Internal fittings have been removed.
