Description

Detached five-bay single-storey former officer's latrine, built c.1855. Now in use as a chapel. Low-pitched artificial slate roof with wide eaves. Constructed of ashlar limestone over an ashlar plinth. Square-headed openings with two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed doorcases with timber doors to end elevations. Located to east side of Custume Barracks.

Appraisal

A modest building with an unusual change of use from a latrine to a chapel. It is well-built using fine ashlar limestone masonry and is an integral part of the Custume Barracks complex.
