Description
The Chapel of Our Lady & St Non is a small rectangular chapel built from rubble stone, designed in a careful medieval style that reflects local architectural traditions. It features a graded slate roof, battered corner buttresses, a corbel table that runs around the building, and coped side parapets. The gables are coped and shouldered, with a west gabled bellcote topped by a cross finial.
The west end of the chapel has a round-arched door, a blank round-headed panel in the gable, and a round-headed opening in the bellcote. There are two round-arched windows on each side, with a larger round-arched window at the east end that breaks the corbel table. All openings are framed with flush ashlar mouldings made from Forest of Dean stone.
Inside, the chapel is divided by a rubble wall that has a round arch leading to the chancel. The roof is supported by collar trusses with king-posts. The windows contain stained glass, featuring four single figures of saints in the side windows and a figure of St Non in the east end window, which is signed by William Morris of Westminster.
The chapel incorporates various medieval fragments, including carved pieces in the altar believed to have come from the former Priory of Whitwell, a battered piscina from an outbuilding at Caerforiog Farm near Solva, a small font from the site of a chapel at Gwrhyd, and a stone in the altar from the ruins of St Patrick's Chapel at Whitesand Bay. Additionally, there is a large white marble statue of the Virgin and Child, which is a copy of a 19th-century original located in Notre Dame de Victoire, Paris, created by Boulton of Cheltenham.
