Heritage Open Day: Beautiful and interesting Chapel in the attractive harbourside Langstone Conservation Area The chapel, situated in Langstone High Street, was built in about 1869 by Henry Williams Jeans and was in memory of Thomas Temple Silver, his wife’s second cousin. In 1866 Henry became churchwarden to Reverend Francis Seymour of St. Faith’s church, Havant. He and his wife, Susan were by now living in Langstone House, next door to Susan’s two remaining sisters, Jane and Catherine. On 23rd June 1846, two years after her mother’s death, Susan married Henry Jeans there. They lived in Portsmouth until Henry retired.
In 1868 Susan and Henry were left £1,000 by Thomas Temple Silver the younger, an ironmonger and iron merchant of Woodbridge, Suffolk.
