CHAPEL OF St MICHAEL

Whereupon on the 22nd of July 1441 a commission was directed to Fr. Nichalas, Bishop of Dromore (Suffragant) to consecrate the said Chappell of St. Michael of Bempton within the said parish of Bridlington and also the chappell yard therof (Terra)

Prior to the 18th Century the Church was served by the Vicars of Bridlington and their assistant curates.
