If you look at MPP Class Description for Gate, Bridge and Causeway Chapels - my copy dates to June 1990 but I suspect it has not changed - you will find under Type F: Bridge Chapels the following discussion on Bradford-on-Avon - 'The only other extant example popularly recognised is, in fact so much modified that its status is questionable. What is presumed to have been a medieval chapel on Bradford-on-Avon bridge was rebuilt in the 17th century with a domed roof and bell finial and then served as a lock-up.' Hence we might have to call this one a draw, Kev! Its position certainly looked right for a brdige chapel to me when I visited it some years ago. By the way Jim this document contains a useful discussion and gives the three or four surviving bridge chapels as Wakefield, St Ives, Rotherham and possibly Bradford-on-Avon - no mention of Derby though. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kev Beachus" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Monday, October 20, 2003 4:06 PM Subject: Re: Mediaeval bridge chapels > Isnt the one at Bradford upon Avon a Gaol? > > >>> [log in to unmask] 10/20/03 04:01pm >>> > I would have thought that there were more than this.
