Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Church of St Buryan "North wall of chancel is C12, otherwise C15 and possibly early C16 ... Largely unaltered late medieval exterior, with most of the original openings ... Tall C15 4-storey embattled tower has buttresses set back from the corners; strings dividing the stages" https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1327526

In the foreground is the WW1 war memorial, a "large ogee-headed arched niche containing a pierced wheel-headed cross" https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1327529 .

The circular churchyard probably indicates pre-Christian origin, in this case "the enclosure wall of a late Iron Age enclosed settlement".
