Description
NY 43 SW GREYSTOKE LITTLE BLENCOW
12/133 Chapel, now barn, north-west of Blencow Hall Farmhouse
G.V. II
Private chapel, now barn. Probably late C16 with C19 alterations. Pink sandstone rubble walls under graduated greenslate roof. Single storey, single bay. Entrance is now through the west open gable. Small side window openings and rebuilt 2-light pointed-arched east window. Part of the north wall extends beyond the present west gable to its original full extent, but has been reduced in height. W. Hutchinson's History of Cumberland, 1794, i, p.414, refers "over the door of this chapel are the arms of Blencowe cut in stone ....", which was in that part now demolished, but suggests that this was part of the 1590 rebuilding. Shown as complete but without roof on engravings of 1794 and 1822. Listed for group value with Blencow Hall Farmhouse.
