Description
The elaborate neo-Norman building is of upper coal measures rock-faced sandstone and ashlar work, with a stone slab roof between raised gables. A single cell structure with dressed clasping buttresses at all four corners, and an arched entrance in the W gable. This has a round arch of fine and crisply carved chevron and guilloche orders, springing from variously carved twin nook shafts. A boarded oak door with elaborate iron hinges has a small barred viewing window. The side walls have an alternating billet mid-wall string and a tight chevron carved corble table supporting the stone gutter. On each side a small raised dormer with a similar chevron arch rising into a steep gable, and containing glazing with tinted puntils. On the door a dedication plaque to Arthur William, 2nd Baron Trevor, d.1923 and Rosamund his wife, d.1942, and child d.1904.
The interior is vaulted with stone ribs, those at the E descending either side of a niche on the E wall. It contains a lifesize white marble figure of a winged angel standing on a small hemisphere, tenderly carrying in her arms the girl child Mary Rosamund who died in 1904 aged 5.
