St Tudius - St Tudy, Cornwall - Medieval Churches on Waymarking.com

"The parish church [of St Tudy] is dedicated to St Tudius and was restored in 1873. There was a Norman church here but the present structure is of the Perpendicular period.

There are two aisles the arcades of which are identical. The tower has three stages, is 64 feet high, and is topped with battlements and pinnacles; there are five bells. It is Grade I listed. Anthony Nicholl (died 1658) is commemorated by a sumptuous memorial erected by his wife. In the churchyard is a pre-Norman coped stone with carving, possibly a rare hogback tomb.

Trevenning Cross (visit link) is at a road junction about one and a half miles northeast of the churchtown. It was found in the hedge close to its present position by J. R. Collins of Bodmin.

The bell-ringers of the village are celebrated in the song The Ringers of Egloshayle (Roud 1163)."
