Medieval chapel.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 shows a chapel and burial ground at this location on Ballaquirk, together with the annotation, 'Site of Chapel & Burial Ground'.


The OS particulars stated 'In a field situated a short distance W of Farmhill Cottage is the well-known site of an Ancient Chapel and Burial Ground; the remains of the chapel were removed a few years ago while improving the field.... Authorities quoted are: Mr Piggott, Farmhill Cottage; Dr Oliver, Douglas; Mr Quine.'


The Manx Archaeological Survey (1918) described it as 'long ago ploughed over. On one of the maps of the Island this is marked as Keeill Pherick, but the name does not seem to be remembered now.' The Survey does not specify the map it refers to.


There are no obvious above-ground remains on the site today.
