Description
The ruins of the Chapel of the Charnel are the remains of a former charnel house associated with the Abbey, dating from the late 13th century and attributed to John of Northwold, who was active between 1279 and 1301. The structure is built of rubble flint with stone dressings and is currently roofless. The walls feature numerous later memorial tablets that have been set into them. Surrounding the ruins are cast-iron spearhead railings that are placed on a low brick plinth wall. The site is designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
