Our Buildings

For the architecturally-minded: the Chapel building is a Grade II listed building in neo-classical style. It is constructed with Luton grey bricks and has a stucco façade and a Welsh slate roof. The substantial railings were made in a local Luton foundry. The interior has box pews. The 'Schoolroom', a large hall behind the Chapel, was built in 1884.

When the Chapel was no longer in use, the front wall was damaged inside and out as a result  of a tree growing in the top of it. Its roots cracked the stone work and let in a large amount of water that slowly penetrated down through the wall. After lots of surveys and tests and with expert help from MEB Design Ltd (you can see their account of the project here), the work on restoring the wall began in July 2024 and was completed in February 2025. Further repair work remains to be done to the vestry roof across the back of the Chapel, as well as the windows and doors. Then we will turn our attention to renewing the heating, redecorating, and some improvements. You can see below a range of pictures showing the damage done by the tree and the work on the wall. If you are reading this as one of our neighbours, we hope that you enjoy seeing the Chapel looking a lot better than it did!
