Description

Union Chapel is a chapel built in 1835, constructed from rubble stone with a squared front elevation, featuring a slate roof and coped gables. The front has flush ashlar angle piers and a band beneath a pedimental gable, which is inscribed with the phrase 'Let us enter into the house of God.' Above this, there is a plaque that reads 'Union Chapel 1835' and 'J. Pinnegar Builder.' The entrance features a door with an overlight set in a later gabled ashlar porch, with a paired-arched 2-light window above. Each side has two windows with arched Y-tracery, while the west side includes a projecting addition instead of a second window. This addition is two stories high, with an arched upper window above a ground floor 12-pane window and a door to the left. The west gable is coped and has a stack. The chapel was built for the Countess of Huntingdon's connexion.
