Description
The Gospel Hall, originally known as Ebenezer chapel, is a building likely constructed around 1800. It features painted render and a slate roof, with a rectangular plan and is designed in the Gothick style.
The exterior consists of two storeys and has a three-window range. The windows are 8/8-pane sash types with ogee arches and interlacing tracery. The facade is enhanced by pilasters topped with pyramidal caps above the parapet, with central pilasters rising to support another parapet that features a recessed horizontal panel with trefoils on the sides. A first-floor sill band and cornice bands run across the building. The central entrance, which is ogee-arched, is framed by a rectangular flat-roofed projecting porch. This porch is flanked by chamfered pilasters, also with pyramidal caps, above a plain cornice band and cyma moulding leading to a Tudor-arched entrance. Above the first-floor windows, deep quatrefoil recesses lead to a gallery. On either side of the facade are single-storey gabled blocks, each with quatrefoils at the apexes. The right side of the building has three windows similar to those at the front, but these have 5/10-pane sashes. There are 20th-century additions on the right side.
The interior has been remodelled in the 20th century. Historically, the building was established by a congregation that had George Muller as its pastor in the 1830s. Architectural historian Pevsner describes the building as having "a charming stuccoed front with ogee-headed windows and blank quatrefoils typical of unscholarly medievalizing designs of the late 18th to early 19th centuries."
