Methodist Church, mid C19 for Rowland Egerton Warburton. Brown brick in English garden wall bond; grey slate roof. Simple rectangular chapel with small service wing at right angles, south. Double doors, each of 3 bolection-moulded panels, in recessed round-arched opening; 2 stone steps; recessed sash of 30 panes with painted square stone lintel and projecting cill to each side of door. Round-arched small-pane fixed light in west end. One sash, as on entrance front, at rear with gabled service wing right. Two round-arched small-pane fixed lights in east end. Interior plastered; complete contemporary furnishing, all of pine. Dado 2 panels high; 6 fixed pews to each side of aisle, the rear 3 tiered; rail to dais at east end with turned balusters and chamfered posts - the central portion curving out in front of minister's desk which has shaped panels and end-posts terminating in ornate turned knobs; round-topped back-board on wall behind desk. A good example, all of a piece without and within, probably influenced in design and workmanship by the (then young) Rowland Egerton Warburton, who contributed to its erection.
