Description

A single-cell chapel in local axe-dressed coursed limestone masonry with a small steeple at the west end; slate roof and slate-hung spire. The east end is rounded. The body of the chapel is lit by seven lancet windows framed in common stonework with low buttresses alternating with the window positions. Corbel course at eaves.

The entrance is at the west end through an outer pointed archway in common stonework and an inner pointed arch with boarded door hung on wrought-iron hinges. Above the entrance is a corbel course and two offsets, and a two-stage tower, the lower stage containing a trefoil-headed recess for a missing statue and the upper one containing belfry lights. Above this is a cornice also supported by corbels and a spire surmounted by an iron cross finial.

Plain interior with exposed roof timbers. The roof is supported by closely set scissor-braced main trusses. Cambered tie beam.
