Description
The Wesleyan Reform Chapel, built in 1826, is a single-storey chapel located on the north side of Cliff Bottom in the parish of Stoney Middleton. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with gritstone dressings and features chamfered quoins. The chapel has a slate roof and a stone bellcote on the east gable.
The building consists of three bays, with a central semi-circular headed doorcase that includes a stepped architrave, a raised double keystone, and imposts. The entrance is a panelled door topped by a plain fanlight. On either side of the door are early 20th-century windows with stained glass set in raised plain surrounds, and above these are two similar windows, including a central semi-circular headed window with a raised keystone. There is a 20th-century addition to the west of the chapel.
