St Peter's Shaldon: High altar
The church was open but unattended and with minimal lighting on when we visited, resulting in some unavoidable camera shake, hence no general views of the nave. Nevertheless this view with some spotlighting gives the impression of the flight of steps up to the high altar in the apsidal east end.
St Peter's church Shaldon
This Anglican parish church, listed grade 1, was founded by the Revd Richard Marsh-Dunn, then Vicar of St Nicholas Ringmore. It was designed by Edmund Sedding in the 'arts and crafts' style, and built from 1895 to 1902, with additions by W.D. Caroe in 1932. It is noted for its solid stone roof, rood screen and the organ, claimed to be one of the finest in Devon.
