According to Nichols, the chapel was granted to Henry Cartwright in 1542, then left abandoned and neglected until 1692, when Samuel Bracebridge settled a yearly sum for the parson of Mancetter to preach there every other Sunday in the winter season.John Nichols Leicestershire Vol. IV, Pt 11, pp. 1038 After this, St. Mary’s Chapel has experienced some form of revival.
