About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The chapel was built in the 1st half of the 12th century to serve the inmates of the hospital of St Mary Magdalene. By the 1830s both hospital and chapel had fallen into disrepair, and in 1861 the hospital, and the nave of the chapel were demolished by the City Council. The south doorway was retained and reset in the infilled chancel arch, now the west wall of the chapel.
Outside few gravestones remain, none in their original location. A small number are concreted in place along the east boundary. A few are used as paths. These are mostly completely unreadable. There is a monument to the Hopton family.
The chapel is rarely open. Inside gravestones are used as flooring, all damaged and worn. There are some monuments on the walls in good condition.
