Salem Chapel

Salem Chapel is a Strict Baptist chapel dating from 1857, as inscribed on a plaque in the pediment. It is located on Ramsey High Street. The chapel is constructed of gault brick with a slate roof. The front has a pedimented facade of four bays, delineated by giant pilasters that feature scroll brackets at the cornice. The eaves are boarded. An open vestibule is formed by two round-headed archways, with two similar arches providing access to the main entrances. Each entrance has a pair of panelled doors and a round-headed fanlight. Windows with margin lights are set within round-headed stone arches at first-floor level in each bay and flanking the vestibule. The interior features a gallery on three sides, supported by an open ironwork front. Original box pews are arranged at ground floor level, along with open pews in the gallery. The chapel was built for David Irish, who had previously been the minister at Warboys.
