MenuSt Catherine's Chapel, Dorset
St Catherine's Chapel is a late 14th-century chapel situated on Chapel Hill, near Abbotsbury, Dorset. The chapel has been dated in style to the late 14th century, the same time as Abbotsbury's tithe barn was built. Since the chapel is built on a definite platform, some has conjectured that it could have previously been the site of a pagan temple. St Catherine's Chapel was built as a place of pilgrimage and retreat by the monks of the nearby Benedictine monastery Abbotsbury Abbey. The monument is in the care of English Heritage. It is within the council area of Dorset.
