Volka Chapel

Just off the porch when entering the church, there is the Volka Chapel which may have been built as a Chantry in which masses were said for the soul of an early benefactor, and for those killed at the Battle of Mortimers Cross.

 

There is an empty medieval stone coffin in the chapel, but it originally contained the skeletons of a woman and child.
