The chapel

The chapel

The Chapel, designed by J P Chaplin, A.R.I.B.A. is hexagonal, and has large windows, giving panoramic views over the meadowland surrounding the building and of the distant woodland surrounding the site.

An induction loop system for people who are hard of hearing is fitted in the chapel. The building is wheelchair accessible and there is a disabled toilet and also a wheelchair available on site.

Seating

The Chapel has seating for approximately 100 people, with standing room for a further 50.

Music and video

The chapel is equipped with the Wesley music and media system as well as a visual tribute service which allows us to show photographs and/or video on two 48” screens in the chapel with any accompanying music.

We are also able to broadcast the service via webcast or record it onto a CD or DVD.

An organ is available for a wide range of hymn requests

Prices

All costs are also available on our prices page.
