Full description
South West Heritage Trust, 1838-1848, Digitised Tithe Maps and Transcribed Apportionments (Cartographic). SDV359954.
Recorded on the Tithe Apportionment of 1843 where the entry reads - 2894 'Chapel', no owner or occupier being given (the number on the map is 2894 but the entry in the accompanying apportionment is given incorrectly as 2984). (Robinson's recording)
Ordnance Survey, 1880-1899, First Edition Ordnance 25 inch map (Cartographic). SDV336179.
Building is not marked as a chapel on the late 19th century historic map (or later editions) and is shown divided, so may have already been converted to dwellings by this time.

(Visited in 1979 - estimate) Chapel, corner of Chapel Fields. Now a pair of private houses, numbers 14 and 15 Totnes Road. Probably early 19th century independent chapel.
