Cornwall Chapels Photos and History

Bodmin, Fraddon, Goonhavern, Greenbottom, Innis, Kerley Down, Redruth, Truro St Clement, Wadebridge, Wheal Busy, Wheal Rose and White Rose

As part of a project elsewhere I am tracking down all the churches and chapels of Cornwall. Those that are lost and still standing, with as much history as I can find.

I thought I should put them on this site as well, since it has been useful to me when trying to track down some history. I’ll not repeat those already here.

  • Hello my Great grandfather wrote a small book about a certain area. He writes about Polvose Chapel around or near Redruth and or Trelissick. I wonder if you might know. He wrote the book around the end of the 1800s.

  • Do you have an image of the Wesleyan Church at St Columb Major. It was demolished in 1963 and turned into a carpark
