Canaan's Land
"Canaan's Land" appears frequently in the songs of the Sacred Harp and other shape-note collections, used to refer not only to the longed-for land of milk and honey, heaven, the better place, the goal of the spiritual life, but also the physical desire of the settlers travelling across a new land to find a place to call home.
The inspiration for our name came from "The Land of Canaan" recreation area and car park in Ottery St Mary, just a few miles from Sidmouth. See more. The image above shows Ottery St Mary's amazing parish church.
