Context Title: No. 2 Niche Lane     
Context Name (Publication): No. 2 Niche Lane1     
Context Description: This was the only example found on the site of a typical domestic chapel not directly connected with any one house. The original door was at the NE end, looking up part of Niche Lane, but this was subsequently walled up; a second (late) door had been cut in the SE wall near the south corner, and this opened into a small lobby which was shared between Nos. 4 and 9 Niche Lane; it is quite likely that the chapel, in spite of its unusual position, belonged to the former of these two houses which was a fairly large and good house but had no properly authenticated chapel of its own.2
