THE FIELD NAME IN 1849 WAS CHAPEL HILL AND IT WAS THEN GLEBE LAND. LOCAL TRADITION ASSERTS THAT THIS IS THE SITE OF THE FORMER CHURCH OF EAST TORRINGTON, BUT THIS IS UNLIKELY IN VIEW OF THE DISTANCE FROM THE VILLAGE AND BECAUSE ST MICHAEL'S IN EAST TORRINGTON HAD A PREDECESSOR EITHER ON THE SITE OR NEAR IT. WHETHER IT CAN BE IDENTIFIED WITH A CHAPEL ERECTED IN THE THIRTEENTH CENTURY TO SERVICE THE SETTLEMENT OF COLDECOTES BECAUSE OF THE DISTANCE TO TORRINGTON IS UNCLEAR. A SUGGESTED SITE FOR COLDECOTES LIES 900 M TO THE NORTH. THE EARTHWORK LIES WITHIN AN AREA OF WELL-MARKED RIDGE AND FURROW. IT CONSISTS OF AN ALMOST SQUARE ENCLOSURE WITH A BROAD DITCH UP TO 1M DEEP. IN THE CENTRE OF THE NORTH HALF ARE THE STONE FOUNDATIONS OF A RECTANGULAR BUILDING ORIENTED E-W. THE STONES INCLUD PIECES OF DRESSED SPILSBY SANDSTONE. THE ENCLOSURE WAS CLEARLY LAID OUT ON LAND PREVIOUSLY UNDER CULTIVATION AND SO TRUNCATED FIVE RIDGES WHICH WERE THEREAFTER PLOUGHED TO A SHORTER LENGTH. ONE WAS SUBSEQUENTLY CUT AWAY BY WHAT MAY BE A HOLLOW WAY FROM EAST TORRINGTON. {1}{2}, HTM 60M
