An engraving of the chapel​

"Wycliffe Chapel, Birmingham, 1864. 'This building is in the fourteenth-century style of Gothic architecture...The chapel is used by the Baptists, and stands at the comer of Saint Luke's-street, in Bristol-road, Birmingham. It seats about 800 persons...A platform at the end of the chapel, opposite the end gallery, affords space for the pulpit - of carved stone, beautifully cut by Wood, of Lichfield - and for the baptistery, of white marble. The roofs of the chapel are divided into three, those over the galleries being arched and groined in wood, and that over the centre part being framed"
