North Gosforth Chapel
The chapel consisted of nave, c. 45 feet x 23.5 feet, and chancel 21.5 feet x 20 feet, evidence for burials consisted of coffins, grave covers, plain and decorated, medieval and 17th century, and 4 skeletons found in the chancel. It has been suggested, on architectural evidence, that the chapel might be 12th century, but the first reference to a chaplain is in 1296. The building probably fell into ruin in the17th century, although burial on the site may have continued into the next century.
