Description
The Chapel of St Michael is a private chapel located at Waddeton Court, built on the site of a medieval chapel founded in 1213. It was dedicated in 1869 and features coursed stone with freestone dressings and a tiled roof. This early English style chapel consists of two cells, comprising a nave and a chancel. The nave has pairs of lancet windows with cusped heads on both the north and south sides. The chancel includes a polygonal apse with triple lancets and a string course at cill level. A large buttress with set-offs is situated at the southeast corner of the nave. The west end of the nave has lancets flanking a central chamfered buttress, which is adorned with a stiff-leaf capital and a corbelled gable bellcote above. There is a gabled stone porch on the north side featuring a double-chamfered four-centred arch doorway. A vestry is located on the north side of the chancel. Inside, the chapel has a double-chamfered chancel arch supported by marble respond shafts, a boarded nave roof with principals resting on corbels, and apse windows arranged in a continuous arcade with colonettes.
