Chapel

Very busy today so an emergency blip of the chapel in the St. Mary's extra cemetery just across the road which is where I found these bricks

Researching the building I found out the following -

Built in 1879 by W. H. Mitchell. A pair of chapels, one Anglican and one
Dissenting joined in the middle. Red brick with blue brick patterns. Slate -
roof with bands of fishscale tiles decorative ridge tiles and cross-shaped
saddlestones. The Anglican chapel is apsidal-ended. Central gable with bellcote
and paired entrances beneath. Four lancet windows in all separated by brick
buttresses.
I never knew that! Amazing how Blipfoto opens your eyes!

A huge thanks to all those who commented on yesterday's blip (some interesting observations!) which made it to the Spotlight Page! xx
