The Chapel that didn't Escape the Planners. by ladymagpie

The Chapel that didn't Escape the Planners.

The other day I shared with you the chapel in my village that was rejected for flats but has been bought by a young architect to be his new home and office.

Well I came across another old chapel in that strange adjoining village at the bottom of the hill. Basically this chapel was the same shape but without the adjoining Sunday School.

Unfortunately this chapel has been converted to 4 or 5 flats but although they look very neat, I prefer these old buildings to remain intact. I would like to put it down to the weird three fingered ginger haired yokels that live around here, but it all down to the local council planning department.

I'm surprised the council allowed it but guess it's better than tearing it down.

I agree with @kathiecb

At least the building wasn't demolished for 'modern' houses

Still a very lovely looking converted Chapel.
Was it originally a vegetable chapel?

Lettuce pray :) I know, groan

@yoland That gave me a smile, you've got my sense of humour. Many locals turnuped for prays.

At least it is still standing and not headed for the wreckers.

Nicely captured - glad that it wasn't torn down! That's happened too often around here!
