Heath Chapel is located in an isolated position in a field in the former civil parish of Heath, Shropshire, England. It is an Anglican chapel in the deanery of Ludlow, the archdeaconry of Ludlow, and the diocese of Hereford. The chapel is served by the Ludlow Team Ministry.[1] It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building.[2] The authors of the Buildings of England series describe it as "the perfect example of a rich little Norman chapel".[3] The citation in the National Heritage List for England states that it "is nationally very remarkable as it has remained substantially unaltered in use, status, size and style".[2]
