Full description
The 1878 OS map <1> shows a rectangular building marked 'Chapel' in the grounds of The Rectory [4129]. The 1843 tithe map <2> shows it with an L plan, north of what appears to have been a stable block and south of a pond and the churchyard boundary. Presumably it was a private chapel for the rectory. It was demolished between 1878 and 1898 <3>.
