The Newstead Wooden Upholstered Chapel & Church Armchair combines timeless tradition with practical comfort, designed for worship spaces where support, dignity, and reassurance matter.
As the companion to the Newstead Chair, this armchair introduces solid wooden armrests to assist worshippers when sitting or standing, while maintaining the calm, ecclesiastical appearance of traditional church seating. Its compact footprint, integrated prayer rail, and discreet under-seat storage rails make it ideal for chancels, side chapels, aisles, and multi-use spaces where both comfort and accessibility are essential.
Crafted from solid beechwood and upholstered for comfort, the Newstead Armchair preserves traditional church character while providing the flexibility modern congregations require.
Product Overview
• Traditional wooden chapel and church armchair with supportive armrests
• Compact proportions suited to historic and contemporary worship settings
• Upholstered seat and 8″ (210mm) back pad for comfort during services

Practical Benefits for Churches & Chapels
The Newstead Armchair provides additional support where it is most needed while allowing churches to maintain a consistent and dignified seating arrangement.
It offers a discreet solution for elderly worshippers or those with reduced mobility without compromising the visual harmony of the space. When linked, armchairs align neatly with standard Newstead chairs, forming continuous pew-style rows for a composed and orderly appearance.
Flexible Positioning Within Seating Rows
Armchairs may be positioned at either end of a linked row, placed at key access points, or introduced selectively throughout the seating layout to support individual worshippers. This flexibility ensures churches can respond to varying congregational needs while maintaining visual balance and dignity.
When used with the linking system, the Newstead Armchair remains aligned with other chairs, even in mixed arrangements.
