From an old postcard of St. Genny's Church (
visit link) . It is suspected this could be the church of St. Genesius, St. Gennys, Cornwall, at SX 148 971. Certainly the lie of the land is startlingly similar, but the tower must have had major alterations. In fact the top stage of the tower is a 20th century addition.
The British Listed Buildings entry (Grade I listed), (
visit link) says the work was carried out in 1910.
Maybe not an 'exact' replica of the church as it is today, and there are some discrepancies with the porch and location of the door. Is it meant to be this church? Almost certainly yes.
