Former Nonconformist Chapel at St Woolos Cemetery

The Former Nonconformist Chapel at St Woolos Cemetery is a Romanesque style building that contrasts with the nearby Gothic Anglican Chapel. It is constructed from roughly squared red sandstone, featuring Bathstone details such as continuous sill-moulding. The roof is made of clay tiles with alternating scalloped bands, and the chapel has low clasp buttresses. Its cruciform plan includes a circular crossing tower that rises from a low square base, with single lights set high up and topped by a conical roof.

The west end, which serves as the ritual east end, is apsidal and has three single light windows. The short transepts feature north and south triplet windows on shafts with simple scalloped caps, with the centre light showcasing sawtooth detail. Above these are tiny paired lights within the gables, similarly detailed. The transepts also include lancet windows on the east and west elevations. The two-bay nave has single light windows on both the north and south sides, while the eastern bay of the nave consists of a large porte cochere.

The eastern opening features a round arch with half-columns adorned with foliage capitals and sawtooth detail in the arch. The hoodmoulding has short returns, and the segmental north and south arches are of two orders, dying into the imposts. The eastern door to the nave is set within a tall round-arched opening, supported by shafts with scalloped capitals. The entry has a flattened arch, with unusual protruding carved roundels on each side. The tympanum displays carved detail with an incised crucifix within the central roundel, and the paired boarded doors are fitted with elaborate upper branched iron hinges, also featuring sawtooth-pattern iron margins.

Internally, the chapel has been used for storage. It features painted round-headed crossing arches on three-quarter columns with scalloped capitals. The arches are of two orders, with roll-mouldings and sawtooth detail above. The crossing has a flat ceiling with a large boarded oculus that has simple radiating ribs. The nave is supported by a thin collar-truss roof, while the transepts have scissor-trusses. The floor is laid with black and white tiles arranged diagonally.
