Parish Churches of Guernsey 9

St Pierre du Bois.

Built around 1375 and added to in the 15th century. Its floor slopes one and a half metres from east to west. When the church was refurbished in 1906 they found out why. An outcrop of rock under the altar. When refurbished in the Victorian era, men and women sat separately and even entered through different doors.

It was nice later to bump into another Guernsey blipper - charmleys.
