Chapel And Cottage Adjoining, With Chapel Forecourt Railings

The building consists of a cottage and an attached chapel, located on Church Road in Ilton, dating from around 1800 and 1874 respectively.

The cottage is constructed of ham stone rubble and features a thatched roof with a half-hip on the north side and a plain gable on the south. It has two storeys and two bays, with small casement windows that have horizontal bars and earlier type frames, all being three-light windows with timber lintels. To the right, there is a boarded door with a glazed panel set in a heavy frame, located in a recess with a concrete lintel above. An iron wall tie plate is situated above the door, and there is a single casement window in the south gable. The interior has not been seen.

The chapel, which is attached to the north side of the cottage, is made of cut and squared grey lias stone with ham stone dressings and has a Welsh slate roof. It features a stepped coped west gable topped with an obelisk finial. The chapel is designed in a 'T'-plan with a north crosswing and has a single-storey, three-bay west elevation. It includes plain lancet windows with diamond leaded glass, two of which flank a pointed-arched doorway in the gable of bay one. There is a stone porch with a pointed-arched doorway located in the corner north of bay two, and a datestone is positioned high in the west gable.

Connecting the cottage and chapel is a yellow brick wall that features a pointed-arched doorway. Approximately two meters west of the chapel, there is a low stone wall topped with arrowhead railings that stand about one meter tall, along with a matching gate opposite the doorway. The stone wall returns to the chapel at both the north and south ends, enhancing the overall setting of the buildings.
