Description
The Congregational Church, built in 1819, is a two-storey rectangular chapel made of local red brick, featuring a 60-foot frontage. It has an ashlar plinth and a hipped Welsh slate roof with wide projecting boarded eaves. The building includes four windows with rounded heads; the upper windows have glazing bars and are set in plain reveals, while the ground floor windows are recessed in two orders and have moulded stone cills. The south elevation displays three windows and a plain entrance door, which is topped by a contemporary date stone with Roman numerals. The entrance gate is formed from a single arch taken from the Corn Exchange of 1845, featuring a four-centred moulded arch under a moulded parapet with two octagonal turreted piers. The church also has a moulded cornice and is constructed of ashlar. The Congregational Church and the premises formerly occupied by T Gibson and Sons form a group with No 22 Broad Street.
