Full description

Ordnance Survey Archaeology Division, Untitled Source (Ordnance Survey Archaeology Division Card). SDV24.

Vis=8/1/1962 (os) house called "old hall" is of 18th century date but name suggests it may be on site of 12th century residence. Three possible sites proposed for chapel. Site "a" "old hall" is on site of chapel, but no evidence to support this.

In the hamlet of prescott there are the remains of a pre-reformation chapel and a figure now built into the wall of a cottage probably belongs to the chapel (nmr citing tda).

In culmstock parish church is a headless stone figure with carved draperies and an accompanying notice states that it came from a demolished cottage at prescott. The notice infers that the cottage was the remains of the chapel (nmr citing osa).
