Langley Chapel, Shropshire

Langley Chapel is a 17th century Anglican parish church which still has a complete set of original 17th century wooden furniture.

It is a simple barn-like building, which was built on the site of an earlier medieval chapel and provided a place of worship for the nearby Langley Hall, whose ruins are nearby. The Chapel was built with wooden box pews, a musicians desk and Communion table bench seats. It has no known dedication.

By 1700 the chapel had largely fallen out of use, and thus escaped any attempt to re-order the interior according to the more elaborate ‘High Church’ model favoured in the 19th century. In 1914, it became one of the first buildings to be taken into the care of the state. The fact it was abandoned meant it escaped modernisation and remains a rare time capsule of the 17th century.
