Save Chapel Hill Church (St Mary's, Tintern)

Hidden in beautiful Welsh woods a few hundred yards above the world-famous Tintern Abbey lies a rather less well-known ruin, that of St Mary's Church, Chapel Hill.

Help us save this historic ruin from demolition. For the moment we are seeking support from the public, organisations, and funding partners whilst we assess the repairs needed to make the ruin safe.

We hope to conserve this historic Grade II ruin for visitors who seek a tranquil space. It is a unique site where one can sit in the grounds of a 13th century chapel with a view out over the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty including the enchanting view of Tintern village, Tintern Abbey, the tidal river bordering England, and across Offa's Dyke and Gloucestershire.

Thank you to artists and photographers,  Mark McCrum, Steve Norgrove and Matt Perks for the use of their images during this campaign.
