Mortuary Chapels, Bonner Hill Road - Kingston upon Thames

Symmetrical Gothic-style twin chapels either side of a carriageway through the cemetery. The slate roofs are steeply pitched with a central stone spire and open octagonal lantern. The west chapel is still used for memorial purposes. There is general spalling to stonework, and vegetation growing at high level. The east chapel is closed owing to structural movement, and propping is in place. The Local Authority has carried out condition and structural surveys. Listed Building Consent has been secured to carry out structural repairs and works are due to commence in summer 2023.
