GV II

Hipped scantle slate roof partly replaced by corrugated asbestos. Brick chimney over external breast to rear wall of manse. Plan: chapel at right (west) end and later manse over a schoolroom at left (west) end. The chapel has an entrance in the right (east) end wall under a west gallery. There is also a gallery at the opposite (west) end of the chapel. Manse entrance to first floor rear left is approached by a rubble sided ramp from left (west) end. Regular south front: manse over schoolroom, left, with ground and first floor 12-pane horned sashes; and 2-window chapel right, with circa early C20 wooden windows with simple tracery within round-headed openings. Entrance to middle of right-hand (east) end with brick porch with corner acroteria and Gothic style window with horned sashes. Entrance to far left with C20 ledged door. Interior has circa late C19 pine fittings but part of east gallery is original, supported on 2 wooden Doric columns. West gallery is later extension of rostrum area into first floor of manse. Rostrum has canted pulpit and flanking flights of stair with splat balusters and turned newel posts. Round cast iron stove is fitted to north side. Original roof structure. Boundary wall is of heavily mortared killas rubble with gateway to middle of west wall with rounded-headed dressed granite square-on-plan piers. Wooden gate with chamfered stiles, rails and cross bracing with pointed dowelling bars, double-spaced to lower half. Source: NONCONFORMIST CHAPELS, by Christopher Stell. A typically simple and good example of a Methodist chapel with a slightly later manse.
