Chapel Of St Michael

The Chapel of St Michael is a disused Anglican chapel, likely dating from the 13th or 14th century. It is constructed from local grey limestone rubble with some red sandstone dressings and features a stone slate roof. The chapel is small and aisleless, situated dramatically on the steep side of Chapel Hill, with a doorway located on the south side.

The exterior is very plain, with the east end featuring a segmental-headed window opening that is ungazed. There is one slit window on the south side, which also has a segmental-headed arched doorway made with red sandstone voussoirs and the remains of a former porch. The north side has no windows, while the west end wall is thicker at the bottom and includes a slit window in the gable end wall. The stone slate roof is impressively massive.

Inside, the floor is uneven bedrock, and the roof is constructed with a pointed-barrel vault. This medieval chapel has little recorded history, and the suggested date is tentative. The unusual roof construction is notable for the region, and the interior was scaffolded at the time of the survey.
