Full Description

This former chapel and school was built in 1911 to replace the earlier chapel built in 1847 on Bardney Road which is no longer extant (PRN 65639). The chapel and school have been converted to a house since closure in 2005. The former chapel has a raised gable with stone copings and kneelers and a raised stepped central bay. The front gabled elevation is rendered with three stepped gothic lancet windows between stepped buttresses. The roof has a metal finial and decorative terracotta ridge tiles. The side elevations have four bays of pointed windows separated by buttresses and the eaves courses have dogtooth brickwork. The two stringcourses are of gault brick; a single row at window impost level and a double row at the window sill level. The contemporaneous school is attached. All windows have original leaded coloured glass.{1}{2}{3}
