Introduction
The project was an archaeological building record, to level 2, of a hospital chapel built in 1857-1858 to designs by local church architects Hinve and Bedborough. It was built in Perpendicular style to serve the adjacent Royal South Hants Hospital. The chapel was accessed from the hospital at first floor level, and sat above an undercroft. The interior of the chapel had been much altered by the insertion of new panelling and furnishings in 1898, 1920 and 1923. A significant stained glass window, in memory of Fred Woolley, was inserted into the south window in 1955.
The physical archive has been deposited at Southampton City Museum with the accession/site code SOU1570.
