In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Chapel Cleeve like this:
CHAPEL-CLEEVE, a hamlet in Old Cleeve parish, Somerset; on the coast, 2 miles W of Watchet. A chapel here, dedicated to the Virgin, was much frequented, in the Romish times, by pilgrims; and the remnant of a cross, for guiding them hither, stands midway between Washford and Old Cleeve church.
