St Peter the Poor Fisherman, Revelstoke

The appearance of this rugged mediaeval church of Saxon origin and originally cruciform matches the charm of its dedication. Set dramatically on a cliff above Stoke Bay, it has a strangely monastic air. The aisle and the porch have finely carved wagon roofs of the late Middle Ages, but much of the rest is roofless. Abandoned around 1870 in favour of the new church built at Noss, dilapidation followed until rescue by the Trust a century later with support from a local group of Friends.
