5/11/11 - Just below this church in 1897 the Russian schooner Demeter crashed into the pier with its dead captain lashed to the helm, A great black dog then leapt onto English soil and raced up the hill past this very church, Count Dracula had arrived in England.
Yes this is the very church featured in Bram Stokers Dracula and although there was a ship wreck in the area at the time it IS just a story . . . . . . . or is it?
