Talk:Chapel of Rest, Brompton, Scarborough

Chapel of rest or of ease?
There's a link in the History section from Chapel of rest to Chapel of ease; but these seem to be two different things. Compare, for example the Wiktionary entry Chapel of rest: "An undertaker's room where the body of the deceased is kept prior to burial or disposal." Or see Funeral.

Of course, given that the chapel was built at the new cemetery means it could have served both functions simultaneously. Even so, there seems to be some ambiguity here. NeilOnWiki (talk) 09:54, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
