Fowey in Cornwall, UK

 This fascinating Anglican Church is located in the seaside town of Fowey in Cornwall, England.  (It was not a Sunday when we visited, hence the lack of parishoners!)

Inside was the following plaque, listing all the Vicars who have served Fowey since 1260 AD!  It seems the longest-serving Vicar was one Robert de Landrac who dedicated 45 years to his calling in this region.

    What a great doorway! I love the history of vicars and glad they've kept it for so long.
