The chapel stands well back from the main road (A3100), partly hidden. Its own notice-board gives a date of 1789. The congregation that founded the chapel was apparently an off-shoot from the Baptist movement - affiliating itself to the Unitarians at some stage in the 19th century: http://www.unitariangodalming.org.uk/history.html According to the present community's website, the chapel's congregation was also responsible for founding the British School, in Bridge Road, Godalming: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3495933 Many of the headstones in the burial ground are quite huge - especially those just to the right of the paved path. Photo taken in fading light on a July evening.
