Mortuary Chapel, 1870. Snecked rubble with roughly-tooled quoins and dressings,
except for ashlar south doorway. Roofless. Romanesque style. Small rectangular
building. South wall has doorway with chevron, pellets and zigzag ornaments;
upper parts of jamb shafts remain, with scalloped capitals. Round-arched
chamfered windows in south, west and north walls; similar paired lights in
east gable. Steeply-pitched gables with moulded kneelers and coping partly
fallen.
Built 1869-70 at a cost of 177.6s.3d. raised by public subscription, as part
of a plan to re-open the cemetery on Church Hill (site of the ancient parish
church of St. Waleric, the remains of which were destroyed by the 1806 flood).
Included for historic interest.
