Description

A single storey house retaining the high eaves level of the original chapel, with a lower two-storey annexe at right (south). Roughcast overall, with slate roofs. Tall chimneys each side of centre in the main range and at the end of the annexe, also roughcast. The front (west) of the main range is symmetrical with 12-pane hornless sash-windows plus margin glazing at each side, occupying the original door positions, and a high level 4-pane similar window above the porch at centre. Main entrance centrally with panelled and half glazed door behind large flat-roofed glazed porch. The windows have stone sills.

Set back to the right is a 1-window annexe which was the former manse for travelling preachers. 12-pane unequal-sash window above, 16 pane below, hornless but lacking the margin glazing of the main range and evidently of earlier date. In the angle of this annexe and the main range is a lean-to single storey entrance lobby with door and C20 casement windows.

The rear of the main range has two original hornless sash-windows of 12-panes plus margin glazing contained in larger camber-headed openings with additional lights over a transom, and a modern 12-pane sash window with margin glazing centrally (in former pulpit position). Conservatory, timber annexe and lean-to glazed verandah at rear.

The interior was converted from the single room of the original chapel by the insertion of a central corridor and the formation of rooms at front and rear. Decorative ceiling roses of the original chapel remain in position, especially the large central one slightly cut into by the corridor walls. The ceilings are at about 4m height.
