The Churches of Britain and Ireland

Looe, Cornwall

Looe on Wikipedia.
 

At one time there was a Bridge Chapel, dedicated to St. Anne. O.S. maps mark it at SX 2539 5351. Bridge and chapel have both vanished. Streetview photographed the view in 2016 - the bridge would have been roughly where the centre of the image is. 

The former Our Lady and St. Nicholas (R.C.) on West Looe Hill, as seen by Streetview in 2010. It's now in residential use, as Ada's Chapel. Genuki says it was founded in 1843, but it's curious that no available O.S. maps show it. Circa SX 2518 5315.
