Description
The Chapel of the Hospitallers of St John the Evangelist and St Anne is a medieval chapel associated with the Hospital of St John and St Anne. It dates from the 15th century, with some alterations made in the 16th century. The building is rectangular and constructed from coursed rubble, featuring ashlar dressings. At the west end, there is an ashlar bellcote. The east side has a Perpendicular style three-light window with marked finials on the drip-moulds. The south elevation includes one small window and a two-light window, both with drip-moulds. A stone parapet with a central finial is present, and animal marks can be seen on the waterspouts on the sides. There is a door on the north elevation that also has a drip-mould. The chapel was built by William Dalby during the reign of Richard II, around 1380, and was refounded by Archdeacon Robert Johnson under a charter from Elizabeth I in 1557.
