As you have stated 'chapel' I assume that you are referring to Christian places of worship as opposed to places of worship in other religions or pre Christian religious sites like Stonehenge or Avebury. It is difficult to define the largest 'chapel' in the UK, as the word 'chapel' can have many different meanings - from a small area inside a larger church set aside for worship and dedicated to a particular saint (eg, a lady chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary), or a church that is associated with a larger building (eg St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle) or a non-conformist church such as a Baptist Chapel or Methodist Chapel. Since some non-conformist places of worship are called chapels and some churches for no good reason but local custom, to define the largest 'chapel' is almost impossible. However, as for a Christian church - the largest church in the UK, and the largest Anglican church in the world, and the largest place of worship of any modern religion is the Anglican Cathedral of Liverpool. This mammoth building has the highest modern vaulting in the world (Nelson's column in London would just fit underneath it - if you removed Nelson's hat) at 116 feet and also boasts the largest pipe organ in the UK - a mammoth 5-manual instrument of 10,268 pipes, and is regarded as probably the largest fully-operational organ (as opposed to those in the USA that are only partially functioning) in the world. It has the highest (219 feet) and heaviest (31 tons) peal of church bells in the world. The cathderal's length is 619 feet and its floor area 104,275 square feet or nearly 2.4 acres or over two football pitches, and its tower is 331 feet tall.
