Description:The Grade II* listed Norman Chapel on Church Road, Dosthill, viewed from the north east.

The Chapel probably dates from the 12th century with around 17th century and later alterations. Originally a Chapel of ease for Kingsbury, Warwickshire. Standing in the churchyard of St. Paul's Church, which can be seen to the right, which was built 1870-1872. After the new church was built the old chapel has been used as a Day School until a new school was built, and later as a Sunday School and Parish Room. Following significant repairs around 1930 (a post box was situated in the wall to the right of the window under the arch at this date) further renovation took place around 1980 following an appeal by Dosthill Norman Chapel Trust.
