St Michael's Chapel, Chapel Hill
St Michael's Chapel, Chapel Hill, Medieval chapel on Chapel Hill in Torquay, England
St Michael's Chapel features a single arched doorway in the south wall, red sandstone window frames, and a construction of local grey limestone rubble.
The chapel, constructed during the 14th century, maintained strong connections with Torre Abbey, located approximately 1.5 kilometers to the south of the structure.
Ships with Roman Catholic crews arriving in Torquay traditionally visited the chapel, establishing it as a religious landmark for maritime communities.
Visitors can reach the chapel through established walking paths on Chapel Hill, with multiple parking options available in the surrounding area.
The chapel floor preserves its original unhewn bedrock, displaying significant wear patterns near the entrance from centuries of continuous use.
