Archaeology

Medieval chapel.


The site was investigated by the Manx Archaeological Survey (1915). The chapel is located within an oval enclosure measuring about 40 by 20m.


The structure is orientated ENE-WSW, and the Survey found that it measured 4.1 by 2.9m, though its plan is slightly irregular and its walls deformed through settlement. The walls stand from 0.6 to 1.2m high, and are 0.9m thick. The door is in the 'west' wall, and the base of the altar against the 'east' gable is 1.2m wide 0.6m deep.
