Official information
St Gothian's Chapel is the remains of an early medieval chapel located in Cornwall, which was abandoned in the 13th century due to sand covering. Excavations revealed multiple phases of construction, starting from a wooden oratory in the 6th to 7th centuries, evolving into a stone chapel by the 9th century. The site also includes a graveyard that was in use throughout its history.
