Halston Hall Chapel is an ancient church building in Whittington, Shropshire, within the grounds of Halston Hall. Both are Grade I listed buildings.[1] Dating to the second half of the 15th century, the chapel is one of only two timber-framed churches in Shropshire.[2][3]

The chapel's cemetery includes several members of the Mytton family. The eccentric John "Mad Jack" Mytton (1796–1834) is buried in a vault within the chapel.[4]
