A bomb in the church at Clyst St George
Mounted on the wall in the porch of the Clyst St George parish church http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1309379 .
The notice above the bomb states:
"An Incendiary Bomb
Scores of these were dropped on Clyst St George on the night of August 31st 1940 destroying
several houses in the village and the rectory stables. One dropped inside the church organ
setting fire to the church that, as the photos (inside church) show, was completely burnt out."

Parish Church, Clyst St George
"The body of the church almost entirely rebuilt by Rev H T Ellacombe in 1854-5, and this in turn was reduced to ruins by an incendiary bomb in 1940; the post-war rebuilding (which was not a copy of Ellacombe's work) was completed in 1952" http://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1164124 . "The tower has the slim profile characteristic of many churches in the Exeter area." In the foreground is the lych gate (1867), also listed together with the churchyard wall http://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1317900 . See also Image
