Bugby Chapel, Grade II listed church building in Epsom, England
Bugby Chapel is a classical church building in Epsom featuring brick and stucco walls with a hipped tiled roof and symmetrical bays. The structure displays arched windows that showcase the refined architectural style of its original design.
The chapel was founded in 1779 by William Bugby as a meeting house for Protestant Nonconformists seeking alternatives to the established church. It served various religious communities until its conversion to office space in 1994.
The building reflects changes in post-war religious communities after it became a synagogue in 1954, showing how the area's faith traditions evolved over time.
The building now functions as office space called The Meeting House and is situated in central Epsom. Access may be limited since it remains an active workplace, so it is best viewed from the exterior.
The adjacent burial ground holds gravestones of William Bugby and his wife Mary, preserving the connection between the present building and its founding family. These graves tell the story of the family that shaped religious life in the area for generations.
