The site of a chapel at Manor Farm is a scheduled ancient monument in Devon, England, representing a place of Christian worship of medieval date. The chapel survives as an earthwork feature within the landscape rather than as standing structures, indicating that any above-ground masonry has been removed or demolished in antiquity or the post-medieval period. Such isolated chapels served the spiritual needs of rural communities and individual manorial estates during the medieval period, functioning as private or parochial places of worship. The site's survival as an archaeological monument preserves evidence of the religious infrastructure that characterised the medieval Devon countryside.
