Almost unrecognisable as a chapel and heavily altered, it is now housing called Chapel House. It was built in 1751 and enlarged in 1839 and was replaced by the current Baptist church on the High street in 1889

There are three main buildings here. The current church opened in 1964, the older church dating from 1868, designed by W. Allen Dixon, and at right angles to the rear of the old church another building (Sunday school?) of 1888. All are connected by various ancillary rooms, the older buildings now being used as halls The modern church has a conservatory type frontage added to provide a refreshment/circulation area.

A Congregational Mission chapel, now a bungalow on the A507 at the west end of the village. It is very much altered from its chapel days. It was built sometime after 1810, out of use in 1852, back in use in 1858, closed in 1913, open again in 1924 and finally closed in 1951.

Hidden away behind Cromer Cottage on White Hill in this small hamlet of Ardeley. It was built in 1890 and closed in 1957. The drive up to the house is also an (unsignposted) public footpath. It is difficult to see this building as a former chapel as it has been altered so much.
