St Gabriel's Chapel — Local services in Stanton St. Gabriel

Ruined chapel that once formed part of the lost village of Stanton St Gabriel, a small rural community hidden in a hollow a short distance from Golden Cap. The chapel dates back to around the 12th or 13th century, and survived until the mid 20th century. At this time a new church was constructed in a nearby village, leaving the old chapel abandoned. Today the ruin adds a bit of historical interest to a very scenic walk from Langdon Hill. An information board is provided explaining more about its history. A little more history is visible nearby in the form of a restored sheep wash. Worth stopping for a look if you're...

This small 13th century chapel is now in ruins, however, it has a few large stones laying around within the walls which can be used as seating for having a picnic while protected from the high winds...

Not much to see if being honest, but if you are doing the walk around Golden Cap it’s worth stopping in. Just rare to find a ruin on a walk and historical interest...
