Botus Fleming or Botusfleming (Template:Langx) is a village and civil parish in southeast Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.[1] The parish population was 766 at the 2021 census.[2] The village is about three miles north-west of Saltash at grid reference Script error: No such module "Ordnance Survey coordinates".. There is a public house (the Rising Sun), a market garden and a small colony of artists, but the village is mostly a dormitory area for Plymouth.
Parish church
The parish church is dedicated to St Mary and has a western tower and a fine arcade between the nave and the north aisle. The church was restored in 1872 by Henry Eliott; this restoration included new roofs, floors, pews and glazing. The font is of Polyphant stone, probably 14th century in date. In a field near the church is an obelisk in memory of William Martyn built in 1762.[3]
In the church is a stone effigy of a knight in armour; he is thought to be Stephen le Fleming who was a medieval Crusader and perhaps left his name to the place.[4]
