The Chapel, dedicated to St. Andrew, occupies a portion of the site of the ancient castle, gaol, and court house, and consists of a low nave and chancel, which appear to have been built with the old square stones of the previous buildings. It contains 300 sittings, and has a cemetery attached. The chapel is in connection with Haughton-le-Skerne parish, hence called Haughton-le-Skerne-cum-Sadberge. On the next vacancy of the living Sadberge will become an independent rectory, in accordance with the provisions of an act of parliament, passed about twenty years ago. The living is a curacy, not in charge nor certified, in the patronage of the rector of Haughton, and incumbency of the Rev. David Piper.
