Chapel Of St Mary Attached To The Mansion

The Chapel of St Mary, a Roman Catholic chapel, was built around 1807, possibly designed by Atkinson of York for Charles Philip, the 16th Lord Stourton. It underwent later extensions and alterations for William, the 17th Lord Stourton. The chapel features brown and cream brick, with some areas rendered, and a Westmorland slate roof. It has a three-bay nave, a single-bay crossing with transepts, and a single-bay chancel. The entrance is located at the west end, connecting to The Mansion. The windows are lancets with Gothic-glazing-bar sashes. At the east end, there are three blind lancet arches and a circular panel above, with a gable that has stone coping topped by a cross.

Inside, the chapel showcases late Gothick-style stucco with four-centred arch vaulting and blind lancet panels. The central eastern panel features a 19th-century crucifixion, along with 20th-century wooden reredos and fittings. The west end includes a balcony that leads from the former Lord Stourton's bedroom. The building is currently undergoing thorough repairs and restoration, making much of the interior not visible. The west end, which is stuccoed, is depicted in a drawing of the late 18th-century house and was described as the chapel room, part of the dining room and chapel.
