Description
The Cemetery Chapel is constructed from uncoursed limestone rubble with some timber framing and features a tiled roof. The gable walls have a high plinth and battered ends, while the side walls are slightly recessed. The upper section is timber framed and continues from the plinth, with patterned calmes glazing between the framing.
The west door, located in the slightly forward gabled wall, has a two-centred arch that springs low from the plinth and features canted reveals leading to double boarded doors. The wall plates and purlins have shaped ends. There is also a door at the center of the north side.
Inside, the chapel has an open timber roof and a simple altar at the east end, which is positioned on a raised dais.
