Description
1999. Building survey.
The chapel was built and opened in September 1859. In 1879, the wooden porch was added which was then replaced in 1909. A dwindling congregation meant the final service was held in 1997 and the building was sold in 1999.
The building is constructed of brick with a timber roof and covered with ceramic tiles. The 19th century wooden porch was replaced by a 20th brick version. A solid concrete floor replaced the original wooden joists.
