These pictures were taken on a visit to St. Anne Church Cemetery on June 24, 2008.
St. Anne is located in Bucks Mills, Devon, England. The church was built in 1861 by the Elwes family, the former landowners, for the estate workers. The entries in our visitors' book bear good testament to our policy of leaving it open at all times. The church, which nestles in the valley leading down from the A39 to the sea, is constructed from local stone and the remains of the quarry is now the car park.
