Old Chapel Hall

Old Chapel Hall is a former Roman Catholic chapel and adjoining cottage, later used as a farm store, that was converted into a community hall in 2001. It was built in 1830 for R. Canning. The building is constructed of coursed, squared lias stone with a slate roof, and features brickwork on the cottage section. The chapel has four semi-circular headed windows with stone voussoirs and leaded lights containing coloured glass. The centre two windows have been shortened at their base to accommodate late 20th-century sliding doors that replaced the original central porch. The roof has a low pitch, parapet gables, and a plain cross on the left apex, with a short chimney on the right.

Inside the chapel, which is oriented north-south, the main altar is at the north end. The ceiling is plastered, retaining two of the original three roses, and features a heavy cornice, with some plaster losses. A single beam from the original south gallery remains, supported by brick pilasters at either end; originally, there were two Ionic columns in the centre. A section of the east wall shows the outline of stairs leading to the gallery. A six-panelled door once provided access to the first floor of Hartpury Court before that building was rebuilt. The walls are plastered, with a green dado rising to the sanctuary. A six-panelled door connects the sanctuary to the cottage. The rear wing contains a central door with a plain two-pane fanlight over, leading to the staircase. A blocked door and a two-light timber casement with a cambered-brick arch are also present. On the left front wall, a lean-to has been added to create a garage, with a stone wall enclosing the area. The first floor has two four-pane sash windows with brick-arch heads and gable chimneys projecting slightly on the left.

The chapel was built by the Canning family of Hartpury House for nuns who were then residing at Hartpury Court. Religious services ceased during or shortly after the Second World War. The building is listed primarily for its historical significance.
