Chapel, Raby Castle - a photo on Flickriver

www.raby.co.uk/blog/2022/04/21/spotlight-raby-chapel/
Raby’s Chapel was built during the early 14th century, but has undergone a number of significant changes since. The 4th Duchess of Cleveland, writing in 1870, describes the area as previously ‘entirely neglected, the casements unglazed and boarded up, and even some of the stonework of the windows in a crumbling state. The wild birds roosted and built their nests there, and for those without wings the only possible entrance was by a ladder through one of the windows,’ before the 2nd Duke’s intervention in the 19th century.

The Chapel emphasises the importance of religious service and divine representation to the families who have owned the castle. The architecture and design offer an insight into changing priorities and design preferences throughout generations.

The ribbed vault roof of the chancel features an early vaulting technique, indicating the age of the original Chapel structure. Quadripartite vaulting appeared during the High Gothic period and is found in Cathedrals from the 13th century onwards.
