Church of St Peter the Poor Fisherman, Medieval church ruin near Stoke Bay, England
The Grade I listed Church of St Peter the Poor Fisherman features Gothic architectural elements with carved wagon roofs in its aisle and porch sections.
Built in 1226, the church served as the main place of worship for Noss Mayo residents until the construction of a new building in the late 1880s.
The church maintains its consecrated status and continues to host open-air religious ceremonies, baptisms, and wedding blessings during summer months.
Visitors can reach the church through narrow Devon lanes beyond Noss Mayo or by walking along the South West Coast Path.
The church structure stands isolated on a cliff edge, with theories suggesting it may have originally served as an oratory for the Cathedral Church at Old Sarum.
