Mountbatten Gallery

Mountbatten Gallery, originally Lee Chapel, is an art gallery designed in a neo-Norman style by T L Donaldson for Lord Palmerston in 1862, with a late 20th-century extension. The building features an aisleless nave with four bays and an eastern apse, along with a smaller apse at the east end of the north elevation and a south porch. The late 20th-century extension is located alongside the north wall. The walls are constructed of brickwork in alternating bands of red and yellow, with eaves that have brick dentils and a deep fascia supported by corbels. The long elevations are divided into panels by flat buttresses, and the arched openings are adorned with hood-moulds and impost blocks. The nave has a slate roof, which extends as a catslide over the addition, while the apses and porch have a tiled roof, with the porch featuring ornamental bargeboards. The west gable is stepped below the coping and includes a central buttress flanked by narrow tall windows.
