The street was one of the original seven streets that made up the medieval borough founded by King John in 1207, together with Water Street, Old Hall Street, Castle Street, High Street, Tithebarn Street and Dale Street. The street originally contained a chapel by the quayside, known as St. Mary atte Key. The first recorded reference to Chapel Street dates from 1368 on a deed for a burgage plot.
