St Conan's Church
St Conan's Mission Church is in the Anglican Diocese of Truro and county of Cornwall, England. This small, attractive church is situated on the edge of the Pencarrow Estate and can be found on the Wadebridge to Bodmin road, set back amongst the trees. Built a century ago, its overall dimensions only just exceed 60' by 20', with seating claimed to be for about 80 - but at a squeeze! The pulpit is 16th century, and it is said to have been used by Martin Luther. The Molesworth-St Aubyn family from Pencarrow House continue to maintain close family links. Built in 1883 at a cost of £490 and designed by J. A. Reeve of Norwich, it became a Grade II listed building on 4 November 1988. It reportedly has an ancient font of Saxon origin, which came from Lanteglos-by-Camelford, and is similar to the one at Morwenstow but has much decoration of a Celtic character. Nikolaus Pevsner dated it as c. 1100 or earlier. There is a fine pulpit, possibly of German workmanship. The church is kept locked but viewing may be made by appointment.
