Description

The Church of England Chapel at St Pancras and Islington Cemetery is a cemetery chapel built in 1853 by John Barnett and William C Birch, with John Glenn as the builder. It was constructed at the joint expense of the Parishes of St Pancras and St Mary Islington. The chapel features a stone-faced exterior and a slate roof, designed in a cruciform plan with a spire at the crossing. It includes vestry and lavatories located in the north-west and south-west angles. The octagonal spire has finialed canopy work above the ridge line and ball-flowered, two-light belfry openings on alternate faces. There is a single tier of lucarnes. This chapel served both parishes until 1896, when St Mary Islington built its own Anglican chapel.
