3 Prior to conversion from a workshop to residential use, a building survey took place. This showed that much of the original fabric of the original chapel survives despite the use as a workshop. The original building appears to have been a singel story open plan hall, various alteration have taken place over time inluding inserting a first floor boarding up windows, adding windows and doors, partitioning the hall into three rooms and adding a brock fireplace. The building servey report also reports that the development site had been left in trust in 1724 for the construction of a Quaker Chapel.
