Description
Midnight Chapel, built in 1767, is a late 12th century or early 13th century slype with two bays that served as an entrance to the former cloister of the Abbey of the Holy Cross, which was elevated from a priory to an abbey in 1184. It was likely constructed before 1242, the year the enlarged church was rededicated. The chapel features coursed rubble and ashlar, with open archways at either end and a stone vault. Midnight Chapel is part of a group that includes the Church of the Holy Cross and St Lawrence, Abbey Gateway, Harolds Bridge, the Walls of the Abbey and Chapter House, the Garden Wall, and the Vicarage.
