The Friday Photo: Father Lopes’ Chapel

20130815-222221.jpg

Once again I find myself taking photos down at Digbeth. This time the picture is of a curious little building that is in a state of disrepair. It has a lovely square tower and a little research on the Internet has informed me that this is an old chapel, namely Father Lopes’ Chapel, built sometime between 1900 and 1915, there doesn’t seem to be any solid information out there about it. I’d love to know its story, it’s quite an unusual design.
