St Mary's Church is situated on the footpath which descends from the public car park down into the small fishing village of Cadgwith. This tiny metal building was erected in 1895 as a mission church for the village fishermen. It is a chapel of ease to St Rumon, the parish church of Ruan Minor.
St.Mary's Church, Cadgwith is known as a Festival Church - there are no regular services but special services are held throughout the year, either at 3pm or 6pm, depending on the time of year.
Our parish of St.Ruan with St.Grade is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO).
