The Corpus of ROMANESQUE SCULPTURE in Britain & Ireland
St Breock (medieval)
Parish church
Lezant is in the N division of the Hundred of East, four and a half miles S of Launceston. Although the church of St Michael is built in the Gothic style, traces of the Norman church remain at the E end. The two E buttresses with chamfered angles are original, as is the set-off or base on which the walls are built. The N and S chancel walls are also Norman. The W wall of the N aisle contains the inner arch and jambs of a 12thc window, which was probably removed from another wall in the church. The font is the only Romanesque sculptured feature.
