The cemetery chapel is in Classical style and is dated 1853, perhaps before the fashion for the Gothic style reached Cleckheaton. It is listed Grade II, otherwise it might well have been demolished like the one up the road in the New Cemetery in Scholes. The listing states that the portico and pediment are Doric tetrastyle, the order continuing as pilasters to three-bay side walls.
