Roof The roof of the chapel is in the style of a traditional Kandy-style double pitched roof. It starts at a height of and peaks at a height of above the central aisle. The chapel was originally roofed in corrugated zinc roof sheets but these were replaced in 1954 with calicut tiles. The Side Chapel The side chapel, entered from the north transept, was named by the then principal, Rev. McLeod Campbell as "the Chapel of the Light of the World". It was the first part of the chapel to be completed and was formally dedicated on 23 March 1930. The door and frame are typical Kandyan work.

The grill on the east was carved locally from a slab of Swedish green marble, like the grills on the sanctuary of the main chapel.

"The Crucifixion" located above the altar: In this mural, painted in 1933, Paynter has set the crucifixion, with a beardless Christ on a cross,
