A Church Micro at St.Mary Magdalene,Huntshaw.
The church of St Mary Magdalene, which is next to the Barton, is a fine, small church built of stone in the Perpendicular style. Most of the work is probably 15th century and was built under the direction of Bishop Lacey (Bishop of Exeter 1420-1458). There are records that date back to the taxation in 1288-1291 when the church was taxed for forty shillings. In the porch there remains a stoup for Holy Water. The tower is 15th Century and has a newel staircase of the same age, which is built around the central pillar. The tower on the west window is late 14th century.
The co-ords will take you to the headstone of Edith,beloved wife of Joseph Stapleton.
Edith fell asleep on January 13th ABCD.
