St. Johns Chapel (in ruins)

On the E side of Carrick Street, c. 45m behind the street front on a slight rise in an area of rough ground which is bounded by a concrete wall to the W, the tumbled remains of an old wall to the N and by conifers along the N, E and S boundary. The ground slopes to the W. The area is overgrown and has been used as a dumping ground. A chain-link fence has been built inside the line of the N wall. There is a hall-house (TS063-071001-) c. 30m to the NW. The chapel is indicated as an L-shaped building on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map, with the main portion running E-W and a return running N-S from the N face at the E end. By the 2nd (1904) ed. OS 6-inch map it is indicated as 'Chapel (Site of)'. There is no visible trace of the chapel above ground. There may have been a graveyard (TS063-071005-) associated with this chapel. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of revised upload: 6 October 2014
