Posbury : St Luke's Church

Around 1835 Richard Hippisley Tuckfield had resolved to build a chapel at Posbury. Church going was then a very much more common practise than it is today. In fact the governors of Crediton Church, concerned at the pressure on accommodation in the Parish Church had taken legal advice as to whether they were legally able to use their funds to build a second church. Of recent years it has been usual for the vicar of Crediton to be appointed chaplain of St. Luke's Posbury. http://www.posbury.org.uk/stlukes.html
