St Saviour's church, Dartmouth
The parish church of Dartmouth in Devon, with early 14th century origins (or earlier: Jenkins describes it as founded in 1286, and there is a more detailed explanation at Link
) and dedicated in 1372 as a chapel of ease to the parish church of Townstal St Clement. The parish name is still 'Dartmouth St Clement (Townstal) with St Saviour and St Petrox'.
There was a major refurbishment in 1630-37 including raising the height of the tower, and a major internal reordering in the 1880s under architect E H Sedding, by which time Dartmouth was a naval training base. Listed grade I (List entry 1293197).
