Former Methodist chapel, now dwelling. Dated 1809. Coursed
rubble, slate roof. A plain rectangular building, with late
C20 flat-roofed rear extension as part of conversion to a
house.
The street front has 5 pointed lights with cusped heads and in
dog-tooth arches, all linked by a drip-mould with carved
stops, and divided by foliate capped colonnettes, probably
inserted in the later C19; the lights filled with small-pane
casements. At the ground floor 2 wide lights with small-pane
casements and to crude pointed arches flank a lower square
opening with a pair of French doors, and there is a further
door and inserted openings on the right return. Roof is

The building was licensed in April 1810 'for Dissenting
Protestants' (RCHME), but converted to domestic use in the
1980s. The former List entry refers to a stone gabled porch
and brick lean-tos to the front.
(RCHME: Dorset, South-East: London: 1970-: 366).
