More information : (ST 80120233) St Catherine's Chapel (NR). (1) St Catherine's Chapel: the building has been "restored" but has Norman doorways in the north and south sides, and Perpendicular windows. It was at one time used as a pigeon-house, and later occupied as a cottage.(2). Abbot Middleton (1481-1525) is supposed to have done some restoration and this may include the perpendicular windows (3). The building is in a fairly good state of repair, but has been extensively rstored. The walls are of flint with stone corners and have three stone buttresses on the north side and four on the south side. There is a Norman doorway on the south side, with a Lombard inscription on one of the jambs. There are the remains of a similar type of doorway on the north side. There are single 2-light Perpendicular windows in the north and south walls. Other windows appear to be comparatively modern, and the roof is completely modern. (4) St Catherine's Chapel : Grade 1.
