Description
Fair Mile Hospital Chapel is a chapel built around 1870 by C.H. Howell. It is constructed of red brick with some black and yellow brick banding, topped with a Welsh slate roof. The chapel has a cruciform plan featuring a 7-bay nave, 2-bay transepts, and a 2-bay chancel with an apsidal end, designed in the Early English style.
At the south end, there is a ribbed door at the center, framed by a two-centre arched doorway within a splayed two-centre archway surround, topped with a gable. There are lancet windows on either side and a bathstone quatrefoil window in the gable end. On the east side, a ribbed door is positioned to the right of the center of the nave, again with a two-centre arched doorway in a similar surround. To the left of the nave, there are five lancet windows, while a paired lancet window is located to the right. The transept features two lancet windows with a trefoil window in the gable end, and there are lancet windows in the apse.
Inside, the chapel contains late 19th-century pews and a curved principal roof supported by king-posts.
