Description

The remains of a chapel, constructed with ashlar on the exterior and late 18th century brick facing on the interior, feature one gable end that survives to full height. This gable end has a moulded plinth and cornice beneath a stepped parapet. It contains a 4-centred, 3-light window with panel tracery and a hoodmold. On the right side of the wall, there is a smaller square-headed window with three infilled trefoil-headed lights, also with a hoodmould. A further fragment of the wall is located to the left of the gable end. Against the gable wall, there are five small slate-stone dogs' graves, all dated from the 1920s to the 1940s.
