St Petrock's Church, Exeter, Medieval church in Cathedral Yard, England
St Petrock's Church extends between High Street and Cathedral Close, spanning multiple architectural periods with a complex interior layout and multiple aisles.
William the Conqueror allocated one silver penny from public taxes to support this church, along with 29 other churches in the area.
The church maintains a dual function, operating as both a place of worship and a support center for homeless individuals through St Petrocks Ltd.
Visitors can access the church from Monday to Friday between 10 am and 4 pm, with Saturday openings offering the same schedule.
The building served as a passage between the city and Cathedral Close when the cathedral precinct was enclosed for protection in 1286.
