Description

The Chapel of the Three Kings of Cologne is a chapel built in 1504, which was refaced and roofed in 1861 by Foster and Wood, with restoration completed in 1865, during which most of the carvings were added. The chapel is constructed of squared coursed limestone and Pennant rubble, featuring limestone dressings and a tiled roof.

The nave includes Pennant stone on the west and south sides, as well as the upper section of the north side. It has a roll-top coping on the end gables and side parapets, with Tudor-arched windows. The east window is a four-light design with panel tracery and a hoodmould with diamond stops. There is a single north window with intersecting tracery and a trace of an arched doorway at the right-hand end.

The west gable features a doorway with panelled reveals and soffit for double doors, topped with an ogee hood that has crockets and a finial, along with a carved tympanum and carved head stops. Above this doorway are three statue niches on carved bases, with canted canopies that have attached finials and pinnacles, which contain mid-20th century statues. At the top of the gable is a square bellcote with angle buttresses and a weathered ogee cap and finial.

Inside, there are canopied niches on either side at the east end, and a Royal Arms displayed above the entrance. The interior also features 19th-century half panelling and pews.
