Mounton Chapel
St Michael's Chapel, originally the parish church, is derelict. It has a nave with a tall bellcote and a porch at the western end and a chancel, which was built at a different time. The porch has a reset 15C doorway and there is a piscina with a trefoiled head in the chancel. The nave has square mullioned windows and a king-post roof, part of the 19C restoration work.
The church appears isolated now, but four old roads converge on it, and there may be a lost village nearby. There are several springs to the east.
