The interior is plastered and whitened throughout, with ceiled and bossed roofs, and possesses an elegant early perpendicular font dating from c.1400.
Landkey is noted for its variety of sweet cherry called Mazzard fruit which was discovered by local farmers in the early 1800s.
Landkey Parish Council have rescued Mazzard trees from the brink of extinction; they were once common in North Devon, but had almost died out.
It produced a high PSV gritstone, for which there is an increasingly important market for wearing courses in road making and repair.
In addition, the quarry also produced aggregates for the construction industry and materials for a concrete batching plant located at the eastern end of the site.
Quarrying for gritstone commenced at Venn in the 1930s, which predated the introduction of the Town and Country Planning Act 1947, and it was in continuous operation thereafter.
