Norcliffe Chapel, Gothic Revival chapel in Styal, England.

The rectangular brick structure features paired lancet windows, stone dressings, and a Kerridge stone-slate roof with a decorative rose window at its eastern end.

Samuel Greg commissioned the chapel in 1823 at a cost equivalent to £35,452 today, initially serving Baptist workers from his Quarry Bank Mill.

The chapel shifted to Unitarian denomination in 1833, reflecting the religious changes within the community and the Greg family's influence in the area.

The National Trust maintains this Grade II listed building, which stands at coordinates 53.3477°N and -2.2501°W, offering regular services and community events.

The 1884 Foster and Andrews pipe organ remains a central feature of the chapel, demonstrating the musical traditions established during the Victorian period.
