Description
Ebenezer Chapel is a single-storey chapel built in a simple Georgian style, featuring a three-bay lateral-entrance facade. The building is rendered and lined under a slate roof, with raised quoins. To the right of the chapel is an adjoining house, which shares the same roof and is also rendered, complete with a rendered end stack. The front of the chapel is symmetrical, with a central entrance that has a round arched head and keystone, leading to double planked doors and a plain tympanum. Above the entrance is a notable square datestone, slightly inset, inscribed with 'Ebenezer Baptist Chapel 1841' and adorned with a decorative motif.
On either side of the entrance are tall flanking windows with round arched heads and stone sills, which contain multi-pane horned sashes. At the rear, visible from the front door, are two flat-headed 6-over-6-pane horned sash windows. The adjoining house features a small brick lean-to porch offset to the left, with a planked door on the left side and a multi-pane window at the front. To the right, there is a two-light casement window under a segmental head, with a similar window above it that rises to the eaves. The northeast gable end has no openings, but includes a small stone lean-to with a corrugated roof and end stack, possibly a former bakehouse. There is a doorway at the front with a segmental head made of voussoirs, and a window with a similar head at the end.
Inside, the chapel is partially derelict. There is a baptistery pool located inside the front entrance, with box pews on the left and right, all in poor condition. Originally, the chapel featured a boarded and panelled ceiling, but the panels are now missing.
