The Interior of St Levan's Church - perfect for peace and reflection

There are some interesting and old bench ends in this church. The one on the right here shows a pilgrim of St James with broad-brimmed hat which with a scallop shell showed he was on his way to Santiago de Compostella in Galicaia, NW Spain where the mortal remains of St James the Apostle, patron saint of Spain, lie in a silver casket in the huge cathedral there. Many folk went on pilgrimage there in Mediaeval times from Cornwall, seated for days in the stinking bilges of rickety, chartered boats.
