St Nicholas' Chapel
There has been a chapel on the island at St Ives since mediaeval times and it is thought to date from the 15th Century. During the 18th Century, it was re-purposed as a lookout for Revenue officers. After this, the chapel fell into disuse and was used as a store by the War Office. Not realising its significance and deeming it surplus to requirements, in 1904, the War Office began demolishing it until they were stopped by angry locals. Following a public outcry, it was rebuilt in 1911.
