Oulton Chapel is a Grade II* listed conformist Chapel built between 1728-3. It is no longer a registered place of worship but is an important historic building managed by Historic Norfolk. The Chapel retains its panelling, box pews and gallery and is a peaceful haven in the heart of the Norfolk countryside. The Chapel became disused in the 1960s and its condition deteriorated. Repairs were completed in 1991with grants from English Heritage and Broadland District Council. The Chapel is available for hire for meetings, wedding blessings, naming ceremonies and other events and the site is now home to Oulton Burial Ground managed by Ivan Fisher Funeral Home in Aylsham.
Oulton Chapel isn't easy to find, but is well worth making the effort to visit. With twin Dutch gable ends, it looks more like a private house than a chapel. Owned by the Norfolk Historic Buildings Trust, it is Grade 2* listed. The non conformist chapel was built from 1827. Inside you will find original panelling, gallery and box pews. From a central reading desk, the pastor would have been able to see his entire congregation in the box pews and three-sided gallery. The gallery is supported by a mixture of "Tuscan" and cast iron columns. The high windows flood the chapel with light. The "Friends of Oulton Chapel" look after the chapel and open it between 2-4 p.m. on the second Sunday of each month, April-October. There is parking and level access across gravel.
