People are trying to save St Petroc's in Petrockstowe from demolition by turning the listed church into a community centre
Saving St Petroc's Petrockstowe (SSPP) says the money from the Architectural Heritage Fund is "a significant step forward" in protecting the Grade II-listed church which was closed for services two years ago after it fell into disrepair.
The group wants to restore the building and develop it into a heritage skills and culture hub and the viability grant will pay for a business plan to be created.
Members of the group have a crucial meeting with the Diocese of Exeter and the Church Commissioners on December 22 to decide the way forward.
The church was due to be demolished or sold after it was considered by the parochial church council to no longer be sustainable.
