366 MEME - Day 119 - Dunterton Church.

[debris4spike]

This is a Church that has always fascinated me, and I pass it on my way to Plymouth each week now. As you approach it, all you can see are the tips of the tower, as the road is above the Church.

The other fascinating thing about it, is that it is a 13th-14th century Church .... and there is a farmhose on the other side of the road .... and nothing else. Quite a few English Churches are like that - not that there never was a village, just not one now. Many villages were lost during and after the Black Death, but the Churches remain, as testiment to their beautiful design.
