St. Helena Parish Chapel of Ease Ruins is the site of the remains of the historic chapel in Frogmore, South Carolina on Saint Helena Island. This Anglican chapel was built in 1740 by planters on Saint Helena Island for parishioners who had hard time traveling to the main parish church in Beaufort, South Carolina.

The chapel had been granted the designation of parish church by 1812. A forest fire destroyed most of it in 1886 after the civil war. All that is left today are its tabby ruins and an adjacent cemetery. The ruins were added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Address: Chapel of Ease, St Helena Island, SC 29920
