Perpendicular-style east window: terracotta foiled and Perpendicular blind tracery above and below: flanking shafts and finial of crocketed ogee arch are continued as crocketed pinnacles: east gable also has crenellated parapet of brick and stone chequer work.

Interior: magnificent C15 Flemish carved and gilded wood altarpiece brought to St. Peter's College by its founder, Canon Sewell, in 1847. Terracotta trefoiled blind arches over sedilia. Many fittings, including benches, with cusped back-panels, and organ loft, were brought to the old chapel from Cologne in 1847. Cusped tie-beam roof. Monuments: Boer an memorial with figures of St. George and the Dragon: Elizabethan-style aedicule memorial to fallen of First World War. Stained glass: east window by Burlison and Gryls. The Flemish altarpiece is the most important item in the chapel and designing around it entailed the high position of the east window. (Buildings of England: Berkshire, p.197; T.D.
