Description
The Chapel of St Mary is a small church dated 1634, though it has medieval origins and remains. It was rebuilt in the early to mid-19th century. The west and south walls are made of coursed squared and rubble limestone, with a stone plinth throughout, and are largely rebuilt in English bond brick. The roofs are covered with plain tiles. The chapel features a one-bay chancel and a two-bay nave. The chancel has two low east buttresses. The windows throughout are painted wood with lead lattice, and the east window is a three-light Tudor arch with simple tracery. The gable displays a moulded datestone. The nave windows have Y-tracery and metal casements with irregular brick surrounds. The west front includes a chamfered arch doorway with brick jambs and an old studded plank door. A simple timber bellcote, likely from 1889, has a pyramidal roof. The interior is simply plastered, with a boarded roof in the chancel and a simple plaster chamfered segmental chancel arch. The nave roof features queen struts. An octagonal stone font, chamfered to a square base, has blind quatrefoils on alternate sides.
