Chapel House And Attached Walls

Chapel House and attached walls is a house that now serves as a guest house and restaurant, dating from the early to mid 18th century. The building features colourwashed stucco with a brick cornice and has an old plain-tile hipped roof with three brick ridge stacks. It is designed in an L-plan, with a wing on the left at the rear, and stands two storeys high with an attic, comprising a six-window range. The central entrance is a half-glazed six-panelled door with flush-panelled reveals and a moulded surround. An early 19th-century stucco Tuscan porch with a Tuscan column and pilasters is attached to a high wall on the left. The windows are sashes in moulded surrounds, with a 16-pane sash in the first bay on the first floor. There are four box roof dormers featuring two-light casements with horizontal glazing bars. The interior has not been inspected. The attached walls date from the early 19th century and are built in English garden wall bond with coping. The wall between Chapel House and the north-east corner of the Church of St. Mary is approximately 15 metres high and consists of two sections, each with a slight projection featuring a large round blank arch and flanking round-arched openings that are blocked with rat-trap bond brick. The section adjoining Chapel House has a round-arched door within the blank arch, while the section at an angle on the left adjoins the church and includes a doorway on the left with a wood lintel. Additionally, a wall at the rear features a section of sandstone rubble with two re-set, three-light windows, which may be early Perpendicular work from the church.
