Towering above Buckfast Abbey is the shell of the mediaeval church of Holy Trinity, Buckfastleigh, burned to the ground twice in history. By its entrance is the Cabell tomb with its casket held fast by a huge slab to prevent his spirit from escaping to roam the moors. The legend inspired Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to write the Hound of the Baskervilles.
The churchyard contains many of my Devon ancestors.
