Fowey in a Gothic Atmosphere

The tower is a fine example of Perpendicular Gothic , a late Gothic architectural style common in English churches. Characteristic features include the robust square tower, the battlements at the top, the slender corner spires, and the pointed arch windows. The stonework and refined decorations around the windows and spires give the building a stately and timeless appearance. The combination of functionality as a bell tower and the rich Gothic details makes it one of the most striking historic buildings in Fowey.
