Coneysthorpe Chapel is a historic chapel in Coneysthorpe, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.
The church was constructed in 1835, as a chapel-of-ease to St Michael's Church, Barton-le-Street. [1] The furnishings were designed in 1894, by Temple Moore. The building was Grade II listed in 1954. [2] In 2010, the church celebrated its 175th anniversary by reviving the tradition of holding a bread loaf feast on Lammas Day. [3]
The chapel is in the Georgian style. It is built of limestone on a plinth, with quoins, a moulded cornice with a datestone and a pediment, and a Welsh slate roof. On the roof is a bell turret with round-arched openings, imposts and keystones, and a domed roof with a ball finial and a weathervane. At the west end are double doors in a moulded architrave, and a hood on consoles. On the south side are sash windows with moulded architraves and hoods, on the north side is a vestry, and at the east end is a sash window with a wedge lintel and a keystone. Inside, the pews, dado, lectern, altar rail and reredos are all by Temple Moore, and there is an octagonal font. [2] [4]
