Salem Chapel and caretaker's cottage

Linear range comprising 4-bay chapel and 2-storey, 2-window chapel house with single storey service wing to rear. Coursed boulder construction with large stones as quoins and lintels, slate roof with narrow rectangular gable stack to R (E) gable of chapel house. The chapel was originally a 3-window range with doorways between, the L hand doorway was blocked and a further door and window added when the chapel was extended. The doors are boarded and the windows, set high in the walls, are large 12-pane hornless sashes with slate sills; similar windows to each of 4-bays along rear wall.

The chapel house is slightly set back from the chapel. The doorway is to L under a shallow overlight with a replacement timber casement of 16-panes to R emulating the original unequal sash window. The 1st floor has unequal 12-pane sashes, all windows have slate sills. There is a modern 1st floor casement in the E gable and modern windows to rear.

The fittings are contemporary with the chapel building. The pulpit is at the E end of the chapel and has a simple raking panelled front under a moulded rail; the side entrance is raised by a flight of stairs with stick balusters and plain handrail. Box pews surround the pulpit and to the W the ranks of pews are raking. The walls are plain with a continuous hook rail raised above the pulpit under a moulded cornice. The roof is of 3 bays with partially exposed king post trusses.

The interior of the chapel house was not inspected at the time of the survey.
