DOWARD CHAPEL.
Can any lister tell me whether this Chapel is still standing? And the
whereabouts of Whitchurch in the Counties of Monmouth, Hereford and
Gloucester in 1853 is?
Tried a quick look-up with no success as yet.
Yes, this chapel is still standing - but it is now used as a
dwelling.
It's accessible via a tiny track from Symonds Yat - it's on
the hill known as The Great Doward.
My great grandparents, John STEEL and Eliza DOWLE,
were married there in 1861. I have yet to locate the
records of this chapel.
I have som (Beta) video footage of the chapel if you're
ever down this way.
