Description

This building is a garage that was formerly a chapel, reputedly dating from 1819. It is constructed of slobbered rubble with stone dressings and has a slate roof. The structure is one storey high and consists of three bays, with the gable end facing the street. On the left side, there is a blocked entrance with a plain surround. There are two round-headed windows featuring 16-pane fixed lights and Gothic interlace glazing bars above them. A third window was blocked in the 20th century when a waggon entrance was created, which has plank doors. The gable end has ridge stacks. It is reputed to contain a dated panel, but the interior is not accessible.
