Background
History
In 1890 a temporary wooden chapel was built to replace an earlier chapel serving the school, but this was badly damaged by wind in 1893. The Lancaster architects Austin and Paley were commissioned to design a new chapel. This was built in 1895–97 at a cost of £7,827 (equivalent to £|r=-4}}}} as of ).
Architecture
The chapel is constructed in yellow sandstone with stone slate roofs. Its architectural style is Perpendicular. The church has a cruciform plan, with a nave and chancel under one roof, north and south transepts, and a north porch. It replaced a three-manual organ made in 1897 by Norman Brothers and Beard, which had been rebuilt in about 1954 by Wilkinson and Son of Kendal.
