Chepstow Methodist Church

Chepstow Methodist Church is a Gothic Revival chapel built from sandstone, dressed and coursed at the front, with ashlar dressings and a steep-pitched slate roof. The gable front faces south and features a four-light Decorated window with a drip-mould and large foliated stops. The building has angle buttresses topped by multi-gabled pinnacles and fleur-de-lys finials. The gable coping is crowned by a pinnacle with crockets, and there is a tiny roundel with quatrefoil tracery in the upper gable. Below the window, two moulded string courses enclose a band of ornamental scrolls in relief.

The entrance porch has a crocketed canopy with a fleur-de-lys finial and a square tablet with multifoil cusping dated 1855. The pointed-arched doorway features engaged side columns with circular capitals and a drip-mould with foliated stops. The boarded door is adorned with decorative cast iron strap hinges. On each side of the porch, there are wall arcades of cinquefoils arranged in triplets; the centre opening is glazed while the outer two are blind. The north gable, masked by a rear extension, has a truncated three-light window with pointed trefoils. The side elevations are buttressed and have three two-light pointed trefoil windows with quatrefoil tracery.

Inside, the church has been modernised and features a medium-sized single space with a gallery across the entrance end only. The six-bay open roof, which has no collar, showcases intersecting rafters and purlins that create a panelled effect. Alternating principal rafters are supported by short moulded arch-braces carried on corbel blocks. A large blind gothic arch frames the gable window at the altar end. The vestibule is present, although the alternative main entrance is now through a 20th-century extension at the rear.
