St Day old parish church ruins.


HANWE everyone!
Built in inferior stone and on the cheap in the 1820s, this church soon started listing (possibly due to being built on ancient, uncharted tin mine shafts - St Day isn't known locally as 'Sinking City' for nothing!) and by the 1950s was unusable after the roof fell in. No money was available to shore it up and re-roof it so a more modest church was built nearby. Nonetheless it's still a local landmark and the spire is visible for miles around.

Maggie,
Yes a shame (but an interesting ruin I feel!)
Andy Rodker club has replied to Keith Burton clubKeith Burton club has replied to Andy Rodker clubAndy Rodker club has replied to Keith Burton clubSad to relate but I once sent out many 100s of xmas cards to my clients and for some reason called one of my best clients a totally different name. I lost his business and served me right for being careless and not thoroughly checking. But I still do it, as you see!
