Keld Chapel is a ruined medieval chapel situated in Westmorland in the north of England. The structure dates to the medieval period and represents a small place of worship characteristic of the upland settlements of the Lake District and surrounding regions. The surviving remains comprise stone walls of modest proportions, typical of rural chapels built to serve dispersed communities in remote areas. The chapel's presence reflects the pattern of Christian religious provision in medieval Westmorland, where such small chapels supplemented the services of larger parish churches.
