Chapel of St. Cuthbert

St Cuthbert's Chapel is a single-cell building and was built in about 1370. It is built on top of an earlier building, as there is C12 and C13 masonry in the lower parts of the north wall. The chapel was restored in the 1840s by Archdeacon Thorp. Outside the west wall of the chapel are the foundations of a small room which may a porch or chapel at the entrance of the church, sometimes known as a galilee and typical of churches dedicated to St Cuthbert.
