Description

The Church of St. Philip is a chapel built between 1896 and 1899 by Sir Leonard Stokes. It is constructed of squared and coursed limestone with ashlar dressings and features a gabled artificial stone slate roof in the Free Perpendicular style. The chapel has four bays with trefoiled lights on the sides and a vestry that includes plain chamfered lights on the north-east side. A Baroque-style bellcote is located on the north-east, featuring a keyed arch set in an open pediment, and there are corner buttresses.

At the west end, there is a figure of St. Francis set in a niche above a shallow-arched four-light Perpendicular-style window with cusped lights. The narthex has a parapet with ball finials and two-light trefoil-headed windows. The chapel is accessed from a 1960s extension on the south-east side. Inside, notable features include a vaulted plaster ceiling, a marble screen, an altar, and a reredos.
