Set in a quiet village edge near Cockermouth, this former chapel offers a large, characterful assembly space with farmland on three sides. The main hall’s high ceilings, exposed roof timbers and substantial stone walls give clear potential for community uses under Class F2 (Local Community Use and Learning).
The building is sold freehold but in largely stripped-out, derelict condition. Original timber floorboards and panelling were removed due to wet and dry rot; the property requires comprehensive refurbishment of structure, finishes and services. There is no vehicular access or designated parking, and external amenity is limited to a small yard and grassed area.
Sale is restricted: purchase is only permitted for an organisation that will use the building in accordance with Class F2 planning. That restriction both focuses potential uses and protects the site’s community role; prospective buyers should confirm eligibility before viewing. For the right community group or social enterprise, the chapel presents an affordable opportunity to revive a distinctive local asset.
