Légende
Church of St James, Dunwich, late 18th century. The ruined leper chapel of St James at Dunwich in Suffolk. The chapel is thought to date from the late 12th century, after a law was passed stipulating that lepers should be cared for by the church, and were required to stay in hostels located outside towns to prevent the spread of the disease.
