Minsden Chapel, Medieval chapel ruins in Langley, England
The stone walls of Minsden Chapel stand without a roof among fields, displaying remnants of 14th-century ecclesiastical architecture and weathered masonry patterns.
Built in the late 14th century as a place of worship, the chapel served local communities until 1738 when falling stones during a marriage ceremony led to its closure.
The chapel maintains connections with historian Reginald Hine, who obtained a lease of the building and declared his intention to guard it after death.
Access to Minsden Chapel requires walking through footpaths, and visitors should exercise caution around the unstable structure during their exploration.
In 1907, photographer Thomas William Latchmore created a staged ghostly image at the chapel using double exposure techniques, sparking supernatural interest.
