Full Description

{1} Meeting House/Chapel. Behind the 'institute' on Station Road, a small T-shaped building is indicated on maps of 1900 and 1926. This structure survives today, is currently occupied by 'Desborough Car Hire' and is being used as workshop/garage. The building appears to have been a meeting house or chapel. The construction is of corrugated metal (painted green) with its interior being lined in wood. The porch and windows survive and the structure would appear to have high potential for surviving interior features.
