Description
The General Baptist Chapel is a Baptist chapel built in 1716, which was heightened and enlarged in 1829, with a new entrance bay added in 1852. The interior was refitted in 1884. The chapel has four bays and a two-storey front. The north-east side and rear walls are made of witchert and rendered stone rubble from the original 1716 structure, featuring 19th-century brick pilaster strips that divide the bays. The north-west entrance front is constructed of red brick with vitreous headers. The roof is tiled and half-hipped at the rear, with a coped gable at the entrance front that has a date stone inscribed "Built 1716 Enlarged 1852" in the center. The north-east side wall includes two round-arched windows with Y-tracery. The entrance front has two windows with gauged flat brick arches above recessed sash windows that have glazing bars. There is a central round-arched doorway with a radial fanlight and a panelled door. Additionally, there is a one-storey Sunday School from 1884 located on the south-west side.
