Description
The former Roman Catholic chapel, built around 1800, is located 5 metres east of Coldham Hall. It features red brick construction, with the rear made of flint rubble and red brick quoins. The chapel has a hipped slated roof with a parapet on the garden side. Each long wall contains three limestone windows, which are mullioned and transomed, featuring six lights with hexagonal and diamond leaded panes. Each window includes a central roundel with a stained glass figure of one of the 12 apostles.
There are two framed entrance doors in the end wall, adorned with applied nail-head ornament, and matching doors at the opposite end flanking the altar. Inside, there is notable plasterwork in the Gothick style, with an apsidal sanctuary that is lit from above and framed by an arched opening with a plaster architrave and flanking pilasters topped with obelisk finials. The opposite end wall features a matching blank arch with pilasters. Additional pilasters are present at each bay, supporting timber beams and a matchboarded panelled ceiling. This chapel is classified as Grade II* due to its rarity and significance as a Roman Catholic chapel built before the Roman Catholic Emancipation Act of 1829.
