Historic Churches in Cornwall

St Just in Roseland - St Winnow

St Just in Roseland

St Just in Roseland Church

St Just in Roseland Church

A very tidy little country church on the banks of a creek, made remarkable by its beautiful setting. The slope of the land means that you can stand at the lych gate entrance to the churchyard, and find yourself at a level with the top of the church tower, while the body of the church stretches out far below you.
St Just in Roseland, Cornwall, England, TR2 5JD

St Mawgan in Pydar

St Mawgan in Pydar Church

St Mawgan in Pydar Church

The church of St Mawgan stands in the wooded countryside setting of the Vale of Lanherne, north of Newquay. The church dates mainly from the 13th century, and was endowed by the Arundell family of Lanherne manor, who lived here for 500 years from the 13th to the 18th century.

St Neot

St Neot Church

St Neot Church

There are two stories about the founding of St Neot's church, and, indeed, about the saint himself. Or, perhaps I should say, saints in the plural, for it seems there may be some confusion over which St Neot the church is dedicated to. To get to the bottom of the story, let's go back in time, back to the late 5th or early 6th century.
St Neot, Cornwall, England, PL14 6NA

Heritage Rating: ?

Heritage Highlight: 16th century stained glass, and medieval crosses in the churchyard

St Winnow Church

A 12th century church substantially rebuilt in the 15th century, St Winnow's may stand on the site of a Celtic monastery. The only part of the 12th century building to remain is part of the north wall.
