About
The building which stands today is a mixture of Norman, mediaeval and nineteenth-century work. The fabric of the building has been in existance on this spot for many centuries, although some of the ornaments and embellishments may have been added to our church during the nineteenth century. The plan of the building is unusual being one of only four Cornish churches with a south tower. The nave is longer than the average and slopes up towards the sanctuary at the east end. This feature is found in the churches of northern France and may reflect the early involvement of the monks of Montacute.
