Description

Chapel with a plain exterior, without name or ornament, lying parallel to the road. The chapel is about 13 m long by 7 m wide, with a later vestry or schoolroom at the E end and a later hip-roofed porch at the W end. The porch is open at the N side. Local uncoursed hammer-dressed sandstone, flush pointed and limewashed. Slate roof with grey tile ridge. The four main windows, two in each eaves elevation, are 12-pane sash windows without horns, dating from an early/mid C19 alteration. In the E gable is a high-level fixed light of 8 panes above the roof of the vestry. The vestry has a four-pane sash window and a boarded door. The present main entrance in the W gable elevation, dating from the same time of alteration, has double doors, each leaf of two bolection moulded panels and one flush panel.

At time of visit (1996) the chapel was very much overgrown with ivy.

At the E is an original dais raised above a flight of four steps, for the pulpit and side benches. The pulpit is rectangular, with planted mouldings on the front and side panels and an overhanging book-rest. The benches have plain panelled backs. At the front of the dais is a handrail supported on square balusters, framed into the top newels of the central staircase. The front of the dais beneath is panelled. The steps have returned nosings, each supporting two balusters. Shaped handrails to the flight, also housed into the top newel. At the bottom of each handrail is a coil over a turned bottom newel.

The pews are of a later date. Two blocks with a central passage, on a floor which rakes about 0.4 m down from W to E. Simple pew design, with a shaped moulding to the top of the pew-ends. Timber floor and dado.
