Description
St Paul's Church Hall, originally a Chapel of Rest, was built in the late 19th century, possibly by J D Sedding. It features local freestone with greenstone dressings and a dry Delabole slate roof with gable ends. The building has a rectangular plan with six bays and a porch at the ritual west end, designed in the Perpendicular style. The ritual north and south walls each have three-light traceried windows, with weathered buttresses dividing the bays and a rendered flying buttress on the far right of the south wall. The porch includes a moulded pointed-arched doorway, with a similar doorway in the right-hand bay and leading into the ritual west end within a later extension. The ritual east end is adorned with a four-light window featuring a rose in its tracery. Inside, there are moulded stone abutments that define the bays and support a heavy moulded stone cornice, while the roof structure is concealed by a 20th-century ceiling. The building is included for its group value.
