Description

Attached three-bay two-storey convent chapel, built c.1850, abutting convent to east. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Smooth render to walls. Pointed-arched openings with replacement windows to first floor, timber sash windows with stone sills to ground floor. Assessed through convent.

Appraisal

This small chapel, with its simple architectural design, is a place for reflection and prayer. Nestled against the convent, the chapel serves as a private church for the Presentation Sisters. Its stripped design with minimal decoration is appropriate for its religious function.
