Church of St. Swithin, Launcells, Cornwall
Uploader's Comments
The tomb of Sir John Chamond (1624).
The parish church is dedicated to St Swithin: nearby, in the wooded valley is the holy well of St Swithin. There are two aisles but the arcades differ: while the north one is of granite the south is of Polyphant stone. The fine series of over 60 bench-ends is from the same workshop as those of Kilkhampton and Poughill. Other features of interest are the medieval wall painting and the tomb of Sir John Chamond, d.1624.
