The lower part of this curious little chapel has the appearance of an
altar tomb. It is however much wider and longer and contains an interior
area of 11 ft. 7 in. by 4 ft. 9 in. with access by the west end. This
small apartment is covered by a wooden roof with painted bosses, and is
open to the chancel; the elaborate tracery on that side having no flat
panelling behind it as on the side to the aisle which our engraving
represents. Opposite the door in this miniature Chapel is a stone altar
over which have been painted three saints, Peter, Andrew and Paul, on
three panels, with a half figure of our Saviour standing apparently in
the tomb with his hands bound, and the instruments of the passion on
either side.
The beautiful perpendicular tracery is so much decayed that we give an
engraving of it fully made out, and drawn to scale by Mr. T. Gibson,
architect.
