Former Roadside Chapel (Baptist), Rishworth
The front does not look like a chapel, apart from the gate. The large ventilators on the roof are also unusual for a place of worship, although normal for meeting rooms of the late 19C. The 1893 1:2500 map shows that the two houses on the south side of the chapel were a post office and a Sunday School. On the 1907 map a large Sunday School had been built behind the chapel, which might also have been rebuilt or altered. This map also showed a small burial ground on the north side of the chapel.
