8 MAY 07

Buncton, Wiston West Sussex

A tiny chapel, serving a hamlet of a farm and a few houses. Designated as a 'chapel-of-ease', it was not allowed a font, steeple or, originally, a bell....although a small belltower was eventually permitted. Reached only by a footpath through a wooded dell and surrounded by fields, a service is held there once a month. Built in 1150, although a previous church on site was recorded in 791 AD.

Quite a beautiful find Ann,well worth the trip to get to it I imagine. The chapel has lots of character about it and those gravestones look so old too. Big V!

Wow! That is some history on this little chapel! What a wonderful place and to have survived that long is amazing. I'd like to roam around and look at the dates on the tomb stones. I love the angle of this shot and it so makes me smile! v
