Description
Chapel House is a detached house dating from the late 16th century, with alterations made in the late 18th century. It features random rubble limestone construction, roughcast on the front, rubble chimneys, and a stone slate roof. The building is two-storey with an attic and has a single-storey rear wing that includes a cellar.
The front of the house has two parapet gables connected by a linking parapet. It has three windows, all of which are late 18th century mullioned casements with ogee heads and decorative leading. The outer windows on both the ground and upper floors are three-light, while the centre window on the upper floor is two-light, and there is a two-light window in the attic. The central doorway is topped by a projecting pedimented porch hood supported by short lengths of entablature with fluted columns and pilaster responds. The door is a six-panel design with a blocked fanlight above.
At the rear, there is a central parapet gable with a single-window arrangement; the upper floor has a three-light window, while the attic features a two-light chamfered mullioned window with a hood. Below, there is a glazed door in an opening with part of a hoodmould that disappears behind a later addition to the right. To the left of the glazed door is a doorway with an original heavy plank door. There is also single-window fenestration beyond to the left and two-light windows on each floor. The wing projects forward to the right and has a projecting gable end chimney. A 19th-century casement is located on the south side of the wing, and there is a cellar plank door on the north side with a casement to the left under a combined timber lintel.
Inside, the upper floor room contains a small cupboard with a carved Jacobean door and fleur-de-lys plasterwork on the window splays. The staircase features turned balusters and is of a dog leg design, while the partitions are made of plank and muntin.
