Siloa Baptist Church

The Siloa Baptist Church was built in 1857. It is a small, two-storey building with a rendered gable facade. The roof is slate, with plain wooden soffits and bargeboards. The front facade has two arched windows on the first floor, either side of a central date plaque. The ground floor features square-headed windows, a central arched doorway with recessed panelled double doors, and is accessed by three stone steps set on brick. The windows have large panes with marginal panes.

The side walls, which each have two windows on both floors, are also rendered, with windows similar to those on the front. The windows on the south side are modern plastic replacements set within the original openings. A small, derelict lean-to is attached to the south wall, with a similar brick lean-to beyond.

The interior includes an attractive painted and grained gallery dating from 1857. Later 19th-century woodwork is also present. The gallery is supported by a simple, three-sided raked design on plain iron columns arranged in a 2x1x2 grouping. The walls feature long horizontal panels above a plain beam with gas lamp fittings. A later 19th-century pulpit platform has twin stairs with turned balusters and newels with finials. Matching balusters are found on either side of the projecting, canted-sided pulpit, which is panelled with a heavily moulded top rail and a deep, S-curved overhang above a small panelled base. The rear of the pulpit is close-boarded, likely dating from the later 19th century, and partially covers a classical arched recess with simple capitals and a moulded arch. A later 19th-century, three-sided communion rail has a close-boarded back. The pews, also from the later 19th century, are arranged in three blocks with close-boarded backs and shaped bench ends. The central block is divided, while the side blocks are angled towards the pulpit and inward-facing beside it. Wainscoting runs along the walls to above window sill level. Stick balusters are present against the first-floor windows of the rear gallery, extending to the height of the lower sash. The flat plaster ceiling has a circular metal vent in the centre with a moulded surround.

The entrance lobby has a tiled floor. Half-glazed doors with ornate handles lead into the chapel from an angled wall, and a square window with marginal glazing bars is set in the lobby wall.
