 , the patron saint of sailors\, welcomed many about to set sail or who cam
 e to give thanks for a safe return.\nBuilt in 1189\, the original part of 
 the church was probably half the size of the church now\, but the addition

  beautiful building you see today.\nSo\, what is there to see? The font wh

 emory of all men who have died for peace. It features figures of St George
  and St Michael and of soldiers by the cross.\n\nWe look forward to welcom
 ing you.
