The present St. Nicholas Chapel replaces an earlier one possibly wooden and dates from the early 15th century. Known as a chapel of ease - a place where parishioners could attend as an alternative to St. Margaret's church - it is the largest of it's kind in the country and is now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust which was established to look after parish churches that have been declared redundant. |
