Located in the Undercroft of St Mary Magdalene’s Church, The Chapel of St Sepulchre is a complete work of art in itself. When the founder and first vicar FrWest died in 1893 the chapel was created as a memorial to him. An early work by the architect Sir Ninian Comper, the enormous amounts of carved stone, stained glass, gilding, and ornamental paintwork take us back in time to the 15th century. Join us to learn about the heritage of this hidden gem and its recent restoration
And if you have time, why not finish your visit with a relaxing coffee or delicious lunch in our canal-side café?
