012.11 This, upon the authorities quoted, is the site or remains of an Ancient Chapel upon a Knowe in a small plantation on Cleland Estate. The hollow formed by the foundation being destroyed, with the exception of the "Sunk Wall", shewn on Trace , on the south side, & may be easily traced on the ground, & there are a few scattered stones of the building lying about the top of the knowe, which is well known as " Chapel Knowe".
The only portion of the wall remaining is on the south side as before stated. It is a few feet in length & about the height or level of the ground on the outer side. It is not remarkable for thickness being about the breadth of ordinary walls of houses. There is nothing known of this save the name which is believed to belong to the supposed remains, or site of the Chapel.
