Benchmark, St David - Davidstow, Cornwall - European Historic Survey Stones, Monuments and Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

Long Description:
Cut benchmark on south west angle, south face of church tower. St David's, Davidstow.

"'Davidstow' means David's Place and according to legend the church was founded by Saint David in the 6th century, whilst visiting his mother at nearby Altarnun. The church is large but was very much restored in 1875 so that little original work remains inside. Both the nave and the east windows are wider than usual in a Cornish church; a few benchends are interesting, one portrays a bagpiper. The parish is part of the group in the charge of the Rector of Boscastle."
