St Peter's Parish Church


The Church of St Peter probably dates back to the 11th century. The oldest part, the chancel, has walls made from large stones from the beach, and they are almost 4 feet (1.2 metres) thick. The steeple carries a red warning light for planes using the nearby airport.

For Our World Tuesday.
