Notes about this historic site

1 Erected in 1836. The sobriquet of ‘The Pepper Box Chapel’ derived from the mysterious and unexplained excrescence on the top. Demolished 1883 by Mr Buggins, the builder, and the site has since been used for the erection of the Milverton Hill Villas. A number of stones from the chapel found their way into what is now known as ‘The Dell’, in Warwick Place, and a small shelter in one corner is erected almost entirely from the masonry.
