Description

The ruins of a chapel, located 150 metres south-east of Haughton Castle, date from the late 11th century or early 12th century, with the chancel likely rebuilt in the 17th century. The chapel was largely demolished around 1816 and is constructed of coursed heavy rubble. The structure includes a nave and an almost square chancel, with the north wall and the east end of the chancel still standing. The east end features a ragged opening where a window once was, and the lower part of the south-east corner of the nave also remains. There are no architectural details left, but a 13th-century window head found among the ruins originated from the castle. Partial excavation of the site was conducted by Honeyman in 1936.
