More about this scene
The origins of the parish church of St Peter on Heysham Head are lost in the mists of time. The earliest recorded date is 1080, when it was noted as an old Saxon church. There was probably an earlier church on this site, built by the Angles. Quite a bit of the Saxon stonework remains today, even though the church has been added to and enlarged. The original part is at the centre. Note the lack of standing gravestones in the graveyard around the church.
