Duxford Chapel, England
Duxford Chapel, built in the 14th century was once part of the Hospital of St. John at Duxford.
It is a small rectangular chapel which dating mostly to about 1337 and was built using flint rubble for the walls and limestone for the doorways and windows. Some sections of the building, including a small part of the southern wall, are considered to date from and earlier 13th Century chapel, which formed part of a hospital.
The chapel has a single storey with the main entrance near the western end of the north wall. There are two similar doors in the south wall.
In 1548 the chapel was suppressed during the dissolution of chantries in the reign of Edward VI and sometime after 1554 the chapel came to be used as a barn.
The chapel was acquired and restored by the Ministry of Works in 1947-54 and is under the guardianship of English Heritage.
