Description
Elmore Congregational Church, built in 1843, is a Congregational Church located on Chapel Street in Tiverton. The church is constructed from squared grey stone rubble, featuring window arches made of dressed yellow stone. It has a slated roof with stone copings on the gable ends and is a simple oblong building set back from the street.
The exterior facing the road includes two round-arched windows with latticed glazing bars, separated by a buttress, with diagonal buttresses at each end. There is a round-arched doorway in the east gable wall and a gabled bell turret at the apex of the gable.
The church's boundary wall is made of stone rubble, with the eastern section topped with cement and the western section featuring a tiled coping. Each end of the wall has a square pier topped with a low pyramidical cap, which rests on a projecting stone slab; the cap on the right-hand pier has been replaced with cement. There are similar gate piers towards the western end, along with a pair of iron gates that have open quatrefoil panels and lily-head finials on the uprights.
The wooden extension at the right-hand end of the chapel is not included in the listing. According to White's 'Directory of Devonshire', this building was referred to as the Independent Chapel in Elmore Street, constructed in 1843 at a cost of £750.
