  • St Nonna's Bradstone Guidebook
    THE CHURCH OF ST NONNA Bradstone, Devon 1 West Smithfield London EC1A 9EE Tel: 020 7213 0660 Fax: 020 7213 0678 Email: [email protected] £1.50 www.visitchurches.org.uk Registered Charity No. 258612 Summer 2005 Bradstone, Devon THE CHURCH OF ST NONNA by JGM Scott (Prebendary Emeritus of Exeter Cathedral, retired country parson and amateur local historian with a special interest in Devon churches) Bradstone lies on the Devon side of the Tamar, close to the road between Tavistock and Launceston. The place took its name from a ‘broad stone’, a stone which is still to be seen about 200 yards (183 metres) east of the church, in a hedge beside the lane on the far side of the Barton. It is about 11 x 6 feet (3.5 x 2 metres) and may have been a prehistoric standing stone or ‘menhir’. Bradstone has never been a big community, but it had some importance since it lay close to the ancient trackway into Cornwall which forded the Tamar where Greystone Bridge now stands; the trackway, now a lane, still forms the southern boundary of the parish. Snugly sited on a south-facing slope at the head of a combe, this settlement probably existed before the arrival of the Saxons, and the dedication of the church to St Nonna suggests that there was a Celtic community here. Tradition has it that St Nonna came from Pembrokeshire, where her son St David was born and where there is a well bearing her name just outside the town of St David’s, and that she lived for part of her life at Altarnun on Bodmin Moor where the church is dedicated to her; however, some doubt has been cast as to whether the mediaeval dedication of Bradstone church was to her.

  • The Lifton Benefice
    The Lifton Benefice The Benefice and it’s Location Welcome to the Lifton Benefice and thank you for enquiring about our vacancy for a Priest‐in ‐Charge. The Benefice is formed of the parishes of Lifton, Broadwoodwidger, Kelly with Bradstone, Lewtrenchard, Stowford and Thrushelton. We are situated in the glorious Devon countryside where narrow lanes open up to provide wonderful views of Dartmoor. We are, however, well connected with the A30 dual carriageway running through the benefice. This means that we are less than an hour from the cathedral city of Exeter with train and airport links. We are also about half an hour from the coast. The Lifton Benefice We are 5 miles from Launceston, 10 miles from Tavistock and 15 miles from Okehampton. Each town has the usual shops, secondary schools and hospitals. Plymouth is approximately 25 miles south with the historic naval dockyard and barbican. There are some local bus services from the villages but a car is essential! Foreword by The Acting Archdeacon of Plymouth Set in a beautiful corner of Devon, skirting the Cornish border, Lifton Benefice is a group of parishes who are working to be united whilst each preserving their own distinctive contributions to the life of the Benefice and the Tamar Mission Community. The post of priest in charge of these churches will make a major contribution within the Archdeaconry and particularly Tavistock Deanery. We aim to appoint someone who can build on the faithful ministry of the previous incumbent whose unexpected death was a great loss to the communities in these parishes.
