Description
The Chapel at Farleigh Castle, now serving as a school kitchen and dining room, dates from around 1806. It is built from ashlar Doulting stone and features a concrete slate gabled roof in the Perpendicular Gothic style. The building is single-storey and has an L-plan layout with a three-window east front. The windows are three-light stone mullioned and transom types, with four-centre arches and stopped dripmoulds. The gable end includes diagonally set two-stage buttresses and a four-light window with rectilinear tracery under a pointed arch, also featuring a stopped dripmould and a clock face above. The stepped end gable is topped with an octagonal lantern that has stone grills for openings, a cornice, and a short spire. The chapel is adorned with embattled parapets and crocketted pinnacles.
