St John the Baptist and St Morwenna Church

The Parish Church of St Morwenna and St John the Baptist, Morwenstow, is dedicated to Morwenna (a local saint) and St John the Baptist, and is part of the North Kernow Benefice of Kilkhampton, Launcells, Morwenstow, Poughill and Stratton, within the Diocese of Truro.  We have services every Sunday and all visitors are very welcome to come and worship in this very beautiful church in a remote setting on the rugged north Cornish coast.

Morwenstow Church is probably best-known for its links with the 19th century cleric, poet and eccentric, the Rev. R. S. Hawker, Vicar from 1834 to 1875. His vicarage (now a private house) stands nearby. The Church has close and very active links with St. Mark’s Church of England Primary School, located at the nearby hamlet of Shop.  The church is open daily for visitors.

Our Benefice

Safeguarding

We at St Morwenna’s Church are committed to safeguarding all who worship with us and all who visit the church. We recognise that everyone has different levels of vulnerability and that each of us may be regarded as vulnerable at some time in our lives, but there are particular groups of people who need to be cared for. These include children and at-risk adults.

Who to contact with safeguarding concerns:
Concerns about the well-being and safety of children, young people and adults should be reported to:-

Our Safeguarding Officer – Bridget Inch 01288 331404 (email: [email protected]) or in her absence to Rev Teresa Folland (01288 352599).

Where there is an urgent need for intervention, please contact:-

Cornwall Social Services Safeguarding Team on 03001234 131 or out of hours on 01208 251300.

In an emergency, contact the police via 999.
