Description

Spelthorne St Mary Chapel, located to the northwest, was originally built as a convent chapel in 1907 at Feltham by Sir Ninian Comper and was rebuilt at its current location in 1931, as noted on a plaque. The west bay was added later by Edward Plaque in the original style, featuring two stone windows with cusped heads, the origins of which are unknown but were sourced through Sir Ninian Comper's office. The chapel consists of four bays, including a nave and aisles, with a slightly projecting sanctuary. A wooden screen with thin Perpendicular tracery and a carved and gilded beading separates the aisles from the west end. The building is timber framed and has an elaborate crown post roof in the nave, while the aisles are framed separately. The windows are five-light wood framed with round heads. The aisles feature wainscotting with an embattled top. The sanctuary bay is notable for its polychrome painted patterned rafters and a reredos depicting the Crucifixion with six saints in the round, along with a suspended square altar canopy. Externally, the chapel is finished in plain brick with a tiled roof.
