Description
The Church of St Paul, located on Richmond Road in Brompton-on-Swale, is a chapel of ease and school, now serving solely as a chapel of ease. It was built in 1838 and features coursed watershot rubble with ashlar dressings and Welsh slate roofs. The building consists of a 2-bay nave that includes a west bellcote and a north porch, along with a 2-bay chancel that has a vestry to the south. The structure is accented with quoins.
The north porch, situated between the bays of the nave, has a hollow-chamfered pointed arch with a date plaque above it, along with kneelers and ashlar coping on the gable. The nave's windows are designed with 4-centred arches, featuring two segmental-arched lights topped with Perpendicular tracery. The nave also has a parapet with moulded coping and ashlar gable coping. The bellcote is made of ashlar and has Baroque-section coping.
The chancel, located to the left of the nave, contains 2-light pointed-arched windows with Y-tracery, and it shares the same parapet and coping as the nave. A gable cross is positioned at the east end, and the east window consists of two trefoiled lights with Perpendicular tracery above. Originally, the nave was divided by a partition, with one section used as a school until a new school was built behind it in 1872.
