Description

The Countess of Huntingdon’s Chapel was built in 1854. It is constructed from carefully cut limestone blocks with slightly raised quoins. The roof is slate. The chapel is rectangular and has a symmetrical front, facing the road with a gabled end. The front features a pointed arched doorway with double plank doors, set within a stone architrave. It is flanked by two-light windows with partial Gothic glazing. Above the doorway is a larger window of similar design. A carved inscription reading 'COUNTESS OF HUNTINGDON’S CHAPEL 1854,' along with the Countess of Huntingdon’s arms, is set above the window, surrounded by a moulded pointed arch with carved head stops. To each side of the front are two large, pointed windows with partial Gothic glazing within stone architraves. Moulded coping is found on the gable ends. A stone bellcote with a cross finial is attached to the gable end facing the road.
