St James' Chapel, Lindsey, Medieval chapel in Lindsey, England.

The stone and flint chapel measures 8.8 meters in length, 4.87 meters in width, and features lancet windows in its original south wall.

Founded around 1250, the chapel served Lindsey Castle until 1545 when King Henry VIII granted it to Thomas Turner who transformed it into a barn.

The medieval structure contains a late 13th-century piscina with trefoil arch and incorporates stones from an earlier religious building in its construction.

The chapel currently requires extensive repairs due to storm damage affecting its roof, and access to the interior remains restricted for safety reasons.

Nesta de Cockfield, mistress of Lindsey Castle, established a special tax on Cockfield in 1240 to maintain constant lighting within the chapel.
