Entrance to Towednack church
The inscription reads "The roadway was constructed and presented to the parish of Towednack by Sir Edward Hain, Lord of the Manor, 16 November 1914". At the time when the discussion would have been all about the war being over by Christmas. The road leads to the church. It is interesting that it seems that at one time the gateway actually had a gate. I wonder if it was ever closed?

Towednack Church
The church is dedicated to St Tewennocus and did not become parochial until 1902. It was built in the 13th century and has a plain tower. A south aisle was added in the 15th century. The font is of granite, 1720, and stands on a base which is an inverted Norman font. Towednack church is claimed to be the last church in which services were conducted in the Cornish language (in 1678), though the claim is also made for Ludgvan.

Towednack church
Dedicated to St Winwaloe, a 6th century Breton saint. The church is thought to have been built on the site of a Celtic hermitage. Of particular note is the stumpy tower, built in 1500, although the church has Norman origins. See http://www.towednackchurch.org.uk/ for more information.

This is the view from the west, approaching on a footpath. The church is some distance from Nancledra, the main village that it serves.
