Ruins of a chapel located 'A bowshot from the church to the northeast, near the road northwards in a ploughed close', are described in Tom Martin's church notes (S1). Martin's drawing shows a ruin with a pointed east window embrasure and stumps of north and south walls.
Information from (S1).

Though noted by Martin as 'Belaugh', the church description to which this is attached is clearly Bylaugh; the spellings were interchangeable in the 18th century.
