St Michael & All Angels Church

Viewed from Church Street, Heavitree, Exeter. Most of St Michael's Church is Victorian - the nave was rebuilt between 1844 and 1846. The architect, David Mackintosh used limestone, while retaining the Beer stone arcade and windows. It was consecrated on 1 August 1846. The limestone Gothic tower was completed in 1887, in time for Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee and cost £3,155. There is not a trace of red Heavitree sandstone in the building. Parish records go back to 1556.
