Medieval chapel.


The Ordnance Survey First Edition 1:2500 map of 1868 records 'Site of Chapel & Burial Ground' with a marker locating the site at SC2000270304. The site lies within a field amalgamated from several smaller plots, two of which (OS Plots 0494 and 0497) were formerly known as Magher y Cabbal (field of the chapel).


Despite the OS' description, substantial remains were still apparent when the Archaeological Commissioners visited in 1878, recording a mass of stone and identifying a carved stone cross (Manx Cross 66). By the mid 1880s, when Canon Savage interviewed the owner, the chapel had been largely cleared, though the site is now uncultivated and gorse-covered.


A hollowed stone - perhaps a socket stone from the keeill doorway - was also noted by the Commissioners, but was last seen on site in 1886 and is now lost.
