The porch has a pyramid slate roof and features an arched opening to an entablature supported by circular stone piers set on tall painted square plinths. Above the entrance is a tablet inscribed with "I Sam VII.XII EBENEZER CHAPEL 1825". On the right return, there are three bays with pointed arch windows, a bulls-eye window in the gable end to the right, and a square-headed doorway.
