St Winifred's Church is a Church of England church in Branscombe, Devon, England. The church is dedicated to St Winifred, a Welsh saint. It is one of Devon's oldest and most architecturally significant parish churches. The church probably dates from about 995, but there are only records of the vicars from the thirteenth century onwards. There is some archaeological evidence that an earlier Saxon church stood on the site.

Castle-like church!

Dedicated to Saint Winifred, a Welsh saint. The church building is partly Norman and partly later medieval. An ancient sundial can be seen over the disused doorway in the southern wall of the tower.

To explore the traces of the patronage of "Saint Winifred" (originally "Gwenfrewi") found here, we must geographically move away from the south coast of England to the north of Wales, and chronologically, travel to the first half of the seventh century. Anyone who would like to follow the life of the popular Welsh saint and martyr (at least virtually) in her homeland can visit the following highlight in the komoot system =>> komoot.com/de-de/highlight/5617651
