Pretty little chapel near the sea. It’s worth a look.

A small bridge provides access to the Source campsite, and the "La Scie" River also passes through it. It is located very close to the Véloroute du Lin (about 50 meters away) in "Le Plessis" (municipality of Hautot-sur-Mer). You can also use it to reach the Canadian Cemetery, which is 1.5 kilometers from the bridge. Several picnic tables are located around the bridge.

The church of Saint-Pierre, in Bacqueville-en-Caux, in Seine-Maritime, in Normandy, is attached to the parish of Saint-Pierre de Bacqueville – Vienne et Scie, in the deanery of Pays de Caux in the diocese of Rouen.

Church with an elongated plan. A single nave. Bell tower crowned with a polygonal spire. On an older structure, the church was rebuilt in the 18th century.

The patronage of the church of Saint-Aubin was given in 1030 to the abbey of Fécamp, at the same time as the lordship of the Garden. From the older period, 12th-13th century, the foundations of the choir and a double lancet pool would remain, but the diversity of the devices and the multiplication of successive interventions, up to a general revival in the 19th century, make the chronological analysis of the building difficult, except for the west facade largely from the 16th century.

Saint-Valery was built by the chamberlain of the kings of France Charles VIII and Louis XII, Jacques de Moy. The work was continued at the end of the 15th century by the lord of Estouville. Before its reconstruction following the disaster of the Hundred Years' War (1328-1456) it was dedicated to Saint Ripert. From 1694, the parish belonged to the Count of Ausmonville and was located two leagues from Dieppe, or in the weight and measure used in Normandy about five kilometers from the city of Dieppe. The ordinance of May 31, 1733 of King Louis XV ordered that the parishes of the admiralty of Barfleur on which Saint-Valery then depended as an exception be exempt from timber cutting tax. It should be noted, however, that at the time, Anneville-en-Scere was spelled and not Annville-sur-Scie. The 19th century was the century of vacations and literary tourism. Maupassant was born in the nearby village of La Tourvile sur Arc. Many sources relating to parish life in the 19th century in Anneville-sur-Scie are provided by the journal Les Études normandes which devoted an issue to the ecclesiastical history of the diocese of Rouen in 1955.
