St Gregory, Goodleigh, Devon - 17th August 2004

As there was no guidebook for this pretty church, the pictures must speak for themselves.

Here are two pictures of the nave, looking east and west.

There is an attractive depiction of St Francis in a northern window, carrying the inscription "To the glory of God & in loving memory of Reginald Yarborough Holmes 1887-1960, Rector of this parish 1955-1960. Given by his wife and children."  Another window depicting St George carries the inscription: "TO the Glory of God and in loving memory of Arthur Milton Lewis Capt 52nd Sikh Regt formerly 9th Devonshire Regt elder son of the Rector of this parish who fell in Mesopetamia 8th August 1919 aged 24." The east window is, in my opinion, the least attractive in the building.
