It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building.[1] HistoryThe chapel was originally built on an island in the lower mere called The Moat in 1675–78 beside Tabley Old Hall[2] by Sir Peter Leycester.[3] The tower was added around 1720.[2] In 1927 the chapel was moved to its present position because its foundations were being undermined by brine-pumping.[3] ArchitectureStructureThe chapel is joined to the house by a passage.[4] It is built in brick with stone dressings and has a stone slate roof. The plan consists of a west tower and a three-bay nave with an ante-chapel over which is a gallery. The tower is in three stages. The lowest stage has a two-light window above which is a parapet with stone balusters and ball finials. The next stage is recessed and has a diagonal clock faces on three sides. The belfry stage above this has two-light louvred openings with stone surrounds. At the top is another parapet with stone balusters and ball finials.[1] Fittings and furnitureThe ceiling is coved.[1] The interior of the chapel is panelled and the stalls are arranged down the sides. The pulpit is octagonal and it has a sounding board and an ancient hourglass. The reredos was painted by Lady Leighton and carved by Countess Bathurst, one of her aunts. One of the windows contains Flemish 17th-century stained glass, and another window dated 1895 was designed by Edward Burne-Jones and made by Morris & Co. In the ante-chapel is a war memorial to the tenants who died in the First World War which is made from panelling from the Old Hall.[4] The organ was made in 1876 by Bryceson Brothers and Morten of London.[5] The registers date from 1678 and contain records of the baptisms and weddings of the Leicester family and their tenants.[4] See also{{Portal|Cheshire}}
