Description
The South Aisle of St Mylor church in Mylor Churchtown near Falmouth in Cornwall.
Old gravestones are used as a floor and the font can be seen near the Norman door.
The ancient church of St Mylor, or Melorus, boasts a 17-foot high Celtic cross found being used as a buttress during a restoration of the church in the late 19th century. The cross, now re-erected in the churchyard, is said to have marked the original site of St Mylor's grave. Nearby are graves of many packet ship captains and sailors.
