Description

The Former Domgay Chapel is a 19th-century building constructed from roughly squared and coursed rubble blocks, featuring brick dressings and a rendered west gable end. It has a slate roof adorned with decorative diamond pattern bands, a crested ridge, a partial central ridge ventilator, a finial, and clay tiled coping with a trefoil plate at the apex.

On the east gable, which faces the road, there is a pointed arch door framed by a moulded brick surround and a stone hood mould. This gable also includes two single lancet windows with rectangular headed glazing, and above the door, there is a traceried lancet window with a circle at the apex. The west gable end features two single lancets and a three-light lancet window above.

The property is enclosed by plain spear-ended railings set on a low brick plinth with stone coping, and there is an arch-headed gate with a simple arched lamp bracket above it.

Inside, the chapel has been partially gutted but retains good quality chamfered, arch-braced, king-post trusses, which are supported on false hammer beams with curved brackets.
