Old maps show County Lunatic Asylum, which had a Chapel at TQ 7352 5527. It's dated here (where it's said to have been converted for housing) to 1848-52, and was seen by Streetview in 2022. The asylum also had a cemetery, with a Mortuary Chapel. TQ 7306 5535. I think it's the derelict building seen here in a Streetview from 2009.

O.S. maps show a Chapel (Site of) at TQ 7141 5392. The site hasn't been seen by Streetview, but there's more information on it here.
