Description
The two small Victorian chapels in St Andrew’s cemetery are of asymmetric design. They are not identical although they are built in the same style and use the same materials, stone and natural slate. Similarities are found in the two buildings’ use of ornate stonework and the symbols on the roofs. LOCAL LIST
