Red Mount Chapel is a late medieval brick structure located on The Walk in King's Lynn, Norfolk, dating to the early fifteenth century. The chapel was built as a wayside shrine and stands as a remarkable example of Perpendicular Gothic architecture executed in brick, a material that was becoming increasingly fashionable in East Anglia during this period. The octagonal structure originally served pilgrims and residents of the town, with its distinctive form and architectural detailing reflecting the prosperity of medieval King's Lynn. The building survives as one of Norfolk's most significant examples of late medieval religious architecture and demonstrates the skilled brickwork techniques employed in the region during the fifteenth century.
