The Chapel is private, and anyone wishing to view it should contact St. Bees School. St. Bees School has its own War Memorial on the terrace adjacent to the Chapel, and there is a memorial to the School's three VC winners within the Chapel. The large playing field between Pow beck and the Priory was laid out in the 1920's as a memorial, and is known as the "Memorial Field" to this day.

The School Chapel was built in 1907 to a design by Paley and Austin of Lancaster in a free Perpendicular style. There is a small Wilkinson organ, and in the West window is a memorial to the evacuation of Mill Hill School to the Village during World War II. Mill Hill shared facilities with St. Bees School.
