Church and Chapels of Dale
Close to the castle, the parish church, dedicated to St James the Great, is situated in the sheltered valley connecting Dale's western and eastern beaches.

The nave and chancel show signs of medieval features, and the tower was added later, probably around the year 1500. The church was completely rebuilt in the 18th century and renovated again after it was struck by lightning in 1889. A leaflet is available detailing the history of the church. Congregational and Wesleyan Chapels existed in Dale from the 18th - 20th centuries. However in the 1960s the former, situated on the Brig Quay, closed and was converted into a private house. Remnants of the old Wesleyan Chapel still exist near the former school.
