St Bartholemew's Chapel, Keeill Pharlane

Archaeology

The site of St Bartholomew's Chapel (Keeill Pharlane), a keeill thought to have been use in the period AD 500-1000.  No surface features are now to be seen and there does not appear to be any record of lintel-burials near the site, yet the name and dedication have survived in local folk-memory. The site is in a field of rough permanent pasture and on a very slight natural rise in the ground. The surrounding surface is hummocky and uneven, but no continuous banks can be recognised nor are there any conspicuous stones in the nearby field walls.
