Chapel of St Margaret and St Anthony, Pamphill, Dorset

The chapel dates from early in the 13th century and originally served a nearby leper hospital which later became almshouses. The chapel re-opened in 1885 for divine service in connection with the almshouses. It has recently been restored and some medieval features, including 13th-century wall paintings have been lost.
