  • A Guide to the Church of the Ancient Parish of St Tudy, North Cornwall
    A GUIDE TO THE CHURCH OF THE ANCIENT PARISH OF ST TUDY, NORTH CORNWALL This guide was originally prepared, in 1994, by The Reverend Raymond Wood, then Rector of St Tudy. The guide was revised and updated by the St Tudy History Group in 2017. All proceeds go to Church Funds Contents Page Introduction 3 St Tudy 4 Brief history of the Church 6 South Porch 8 Nave & North Aisle 8 Lady Chapel 12 Chancel & Sanctuary 12 Organ 14 Vestry 15 South aisle 16 Tower & Bells 22 Churchyard 24 Other buildings 27 Appendices 1. Rectors 2. Organ details 3. Church Plate 4. Bells 5. Tombs & Headstones 6. Glossary 7. Bibliography 8. Reverend Wood’s Prologue 9. Floor Plan Sketch 2 Introduction The St Tudy circular churchyard is considered by Cornwall County Archaeologists to be built on the site of an Iron Age round – there is also evidence of several other Iron Age remains in the village and its environs, indicating that this area has been a settled community for more than 2,500 years and thus the term ‘ancient’ in our title. According to medieval traditions, Christianity arrived in Britain in the 2nd or 3rd century and the existence of Romano Christian inscriptions in Cornwall suggests that Christianity existed in the county by the end of the 5th century. Cornish bishops were reported to have assisted in the consecration of St Chad, Archbishop of the Mercians, in 664 but their names are merely legendary. The first recorded Bishop of Cornwall is Kenstec who was consecrated between 833 and 870. He professed obedience to the Archbishop of Canterbury, marking a stage in the incorporation of the Cornish Celtic Christian church into the English church; at that time Cornwall was a separate kingdom and Dungarth was the King.

Twesas A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Greenwich for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2007 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to acknowledge all of the extraordinary people who helped to make this thesis possible. My involvement in this voyage towards my doctorate has given me opportunities I could not have imagined, and I have met many people for whom I feel immense affection. Because of them, I have been able to 'sail in smooth waters'. With much fondness, to Joan Ryan, a fellow Ph.D. student at the Greenwich Maritime Institute, and retired Humanities lecturer at the University of Greenwich, who has given so much of herself that she is a true friend in every meaning of the word. To her husband Mick Ryan, Professor of Penal Politics, also at Greenwich, with whom I enjoyed many long conversations about crime and wrecking; to Professor Roger Knight, former Deputy-Director of the National Maritime Museum and now Professor of Naval History, GMI, who introduced me to Capt. George Hogg and all those who were initiating the new National Maritime Museum Cornwall; to all of my fellow students at the GMI, with whom I have created an international 'family'; to my supervisor Dr John Dunne for his encouragement; and especially to my main supervisor Professor Sarah Palmer, Director of the GMI, whose continued enthusiasm and support meant more than I can ever say.
