Ballachrink, Lonan

Archaeology

Medieval chapel.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867 shows the location of a chapel and burial ground at this location on Skinscoe farm, together with the annotation, 'Site of Chapel & Burial Ground'. The OS marks the site of the chapel itself within the enclosure, which is defined as an earthwork feature.


The Manx Archaeological Survey (1915) states that the site has long been ploughed over, and makes no further comment on the condition of the chapel. By 1976 a Royal Commission field inspector described any surface remains as unsurveyable.
