North west aspect. Parish Church. Very little of a medieval building survives, since the church was extensively restored by Ordish c1880. The tower, however, was built in 1789. Limestone ashlar to tower, the rest of random granite rubble with limestone dressings. Two stage tower is an odd mixture of classical and gothic allusion, with two-centred arched windows to ground floor with wood Y-tracery and a similar window in the second stage, but with a Gibbs surround. The second stage has stepped pedestal and angle pilasters and is divided by a sill band, above which is an oculus, and it is surmounted by a small octagonal stump with oculi. (Photo Mar 2007).
