Newsam Green

[edit]

Archaeologists believe that there may have been a chapel at the Temple Newsam Preceptory, south east of Temple Newsam House, a few yards to the south-east of junction 45 of the M1 motorway. Excavations in 1903 found human remains, stone coffins and a possible chapel,[550] but a rescue dig in 1989-1991 failed to find the chapel, which was surmised to be under an industrial spoil heap to the south.[551] The Gatehouse Gazetteer refers to "the area immediately north of the chapel", which had been disturbed by animal burials before the 1989-1991 excavation.
