Description
Providence Methodist Chapel is a Methodist chapel, originally built for the Bible Christian denomination, dated 1839. It is said to have been constructed at the expense of R.D. Gay of nearby Providence Place. The chapel is made of plastered granite stone rubble that is lightly incised to resemble ashlar, and it has a slate roof.
The building is oriented with its side facing the road to the south-west. The entrance is located under a gallery at the right (south-east) end, with assembly rooms situated at the left end. The front of the chapel features a single tall window with a pointed head, which contains a pattern of 20th-century leaded glass. There are two similar windows at the rear. The roof is hipped at both ends.
On the right end, there is a doorway with a small gabled porch that includes a 20th-century door. Above this door is a small lead plaque inscribed with "Bible Christian Chapel, 1839." To the left of the chapel, there is a similar porch leading to the assembly rooms, accompanied by a sixteen-pane sash window on the left. This section has a lower gable-ended roof and contains two round-headed windows with Y-tracery glazing bars, along with another round-headed window above the main chapel porch.
