It is located {{convert|2|mi|km|0}} east of the town of Wilmslow, Cheshire, near the junction of the A5102 and B5358 roads. The structure is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building.^[1] The congregation is a member of the General Assembly of Unitarian and Free Christian Churches, the umbrella organisation for British Unitarians.^[2]

History

The chapel was built around the end of the 17th century soon after the passing of the Act of Toleration 1689. By 1843 it had become a ruin. It was restored but during the process many of the internal fittings and furniture were lost. The chapel was rededicated on 23 April 1845.^[3] A further restoration took place in 1971.^[1] Initially Presbyterian, it later became Unitarian^[1] and continues in use as a Unitarian chapel.^[2]

Architecture

Exterior

The chapel is built in red brick with sandstone dressings and is in two storeys. The roof is of Kerridge slates with a stone ridge. The eastern gable is surmounted by a stone ball and the western gable has a bellcote with a single bell, and a stone ball on its top. Two external staircases lead to the upper storeys and under each staircase is a porch providing an entrance to the lower storey. At the lower level are four two-light chamfered stone mullioned windows, and at the upper level six similar windows. In the centre of the wall are bronze war memorial plaques.^[1]

Interior

At each end are galleries with the organ occupying the east gallery. The altar table is at the east end and is enclosed by a curved rail. Also at the east end is the three-level pulpit which was formerly on the north side. At the west end is a board containing the names of the past ministers.^[1]

External features

In the graveyard is a sundial with three dials dating from 1871, which was restored for the 2000 millennium.^[4]

Religious life

Two nearby Unitarian congregations are Chowbent Chapel and Cross Street Chapel.
