This drawing is, I'm afraid to say, not clear as to what is shown and blowing
it up larger doesn't help at all. I understand that there are no visable remains
of the chapel on the site to-day (that is, assuming that anyone could find the
site in the first place!) otherwise it might be worth a visit just to see if
the drawing became clearer. My grandfather was, obviously, concerned at the
state of the old ruin when he saw it in 1899 (see the newspaper cutting below).
The cutting is from the old "Bexhill Observer" and reads as follws: -
Northeye Chapel | |
To the Editor Dear Sir, - I was disappointed the other day when I found the ruin of Northeye Chapel in such an out-of-the-way and neglected spot. Cannot something be done to preserve this historical ruin? Yours Truly, John Jas Newport Hooe, June 21st., 1899 |
