SE 45 NW ALLERTON MAULEVERER ALLERTON PARK WITH HOPPERTON 3/3 Chapel of St. Mary 18.8.83 attached to The Mansion (Previously listed as Chapel adjoining Allerton Park) GV II*

Roman Catholic chapel of St. Mary. c1807. Possibly by Atkinson of York, for Charles Philip, 16th Lord Stourton, with later extensions and alterations for William, 17th Lord Stourton. Brown and cream brick, partly rendered, Westmorland slate roof. 3 bay nave, single bay crossing with transepts and single bay chancel. Entrance is from The Mansion at west end. Windows throughout are lancets with Gothic-glazing-bar sashes. At east end 3 blind lancet arches and circular panel above; gable with stone coping topped by cross. Interior; late Gothick-style stucco with 4-centred arch vaulting and blind lancet panels. Central eastern panel contains C19 crucifixion; C20 wooden reredos and fittings. West end has balcony leading from former Lord Stourton's bedroom. The building is being thoroughly repaired and restored, much of the interior is therefore not visible. The west end, stuccoed, is shown in a drawing of the late C18 house and is described as the chapel room (part of the dining room) and chapel. See H. Speight, Nidderdale, 1894, p. 199.
