Description

The chapel was built in the early 15th century by Richard Beauchamp, 13th Earl of Warwick, supposedly on the site of an oratory founded by St Dubricius. It was restored in the mid-18th century and the interior was remodelled between 1819 and 1824. In 1974 it became a Masonic Temple.

The prints OP29650, OP29651, OP29652 and OP29653 are mounted together on a loose album page. On the other side of the page are OP29654 and OP29655 which shows images of Lasborough in Gloucestershire.
