same carver ? - Dartmouth Devon

Tall plain tower arch and large beams to the ringing floor. - Tower walls of exposed stone, the rest are plastered. Tower floor is an attractive chequer pattern of red, black and cream tiles.

Norman red sandstone font - circular stem and bowl with frieze of palmette decoration very like the one at Cornworthy www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/8951p8c45Z

Plain C19 pine benches. West end of south aisle screened off by a partition made up from pieces of C17 panelling, enriched with guilloche, strapwork, cherubs, leafy scrolls, etc: these fragments are probably from the C17 gallery (dismantled in 1885) as are the panelled sections of the gallery frontal with similar ornament set in the tower and now used to commemorate those parishioners who died in both World Wars.

- Church of St. Petrox, Dartmouth
