Description
The cemetery chapel, built in 1858, is a small structure designed by architect Mr. Wimpriss. It is constructed of gault brick with red brick banding and decorative pattern work. The chapel features a gabled roof covered in fishscale patterned tiles, alternating in red and grey bands, topped with crested ridge tiles. It is a single storey building with a two-light window featuring a two-centred head on the gable end. An open-sided wooden porch with a gabled roof, matching the tile pattern, leads to the doorway on the east elevation. The chapel is part of the Inskip Ladds Collection at the Norris Museum in St. Ives.
