}}St Tugual's Chapel is a non-denominational and non-consecrated chapel[1] which dates from the 11th century.[1] It is located on Herm,[2] the smallest of the Channel Islands open to the public.[3] The Chapel is currently listed on the Register of Ancient Monuments and Protected Buildings for the States of Guernsey.[5]

History

The chapel, which incorporates an earlier structure,[4]{{rp|128}} dates from the 11th century;[5] but it has been suggested that the site has been of religious significance from the 6th century.[6] It is uncertain if the chapel was named after Saint Tugual because he visited Herm; or if it was so called by Tugual's followers.[6]

The current chapel was built by Norman monks who lived on the island.[6]

When the Wood family took over the island's lease in 1949, they re-opened parts of the chapel; and cleared several windows.[6]

The Chapel featured on a 1970 stamp.[7]

Restoration work

In 2010 and 2011, the chapel was closed for restoration work, in which there was re-roofing,[8] repointing, re-rendering, and drainage installation.[5] The States of Guernsey are responsible for the chapel's upkeep.[8] The chapel re-opened with a special re dedication service in May 2011.[9]

Skeletons

During the works; two skeletons were found; that of an adult and that of a child.[9] The skeletons were originally estimated to be between 400 and 500 years old.[9] Soon, three more part skeletons were expected to be excavated;[10] but eventually, within a 15m sq area; 40 skeletons were found,[11] around 50% were children. The skeletons were taken to Guernsey by a team led by Philip de Jersey, then were returned to Herm for burial. The earliest bones dated were from the second half of the 10th century.[12]
