The Castle Chapel of St Mary, Snape

The Castle Chapel of St Mary, Snape
St Mary's Chapel, Snape Castle lies on the northern side of The Avenue, at the western edge of the village of Snape. The chapel has probably existed within the castle since the latter was first built in the twelfth century, but it is not until the early sixteenth century that the chapel receives a mention. It is situated on an upper floor of a building on the south side of what remains a substantial part of the castle, and was restored on several occasions, notably in 1802 and 1874.
