Description

Coldbrook Chapel is a single-storey, rectangular chapel built in the Neo-Renaissance style. It features a sharply gabled roof with kneelers and is constructed from coursed and faced rubble stone with stone dressings, topped with a slate roof. The main front has a ground floor door framed by an architrave with a recessed arch, impost blocks, a keystone, and spandrel roundels. There is a niche with a projecting base and a roundel window above. Each side of the chapel has four windows located directly under the eaves, with a continuous strong course below them. A small boiler room vestry is attached to the southeast, which has a flat roof, a moulded doorframe, and a small window to the right.

Inside, the chapel has an unfurnished four-bay roof structure featuring a queen post roof with arch-braced tie beams. There is a moulded entablature and cornice applied to the tie beam and pilaster framing above the queen posts and tie beam. The moulded wall plate and purlins are complemented by framing above each window and on the underside of the roof. Additionally, there is a crypt located below the chapel.
