HIRING

The Chapel is available for hiring - see details below.

Please note that the pulpit and box pews shown on the photo below are fixtures of the Chapel and will remain in-situ during any hiring event. However, the exhibition items and 'characters' can be removed. The remaining pews can be moved to the sides of the Chapel to make a large open space and/or seating is available for theatre or lecture style events. The vestry is also available separately for committee-style meetings for up to 8 persons.  

Events at the Chapel must end by 22:30 hours in deference to our neighbours.
