St Ives Parish Church

During our walk in St Ives, we visited the church of St Ia the Virgin, which has probably the most beautiful interior we have seen on this trip around Cornwall.

St Ia was a 6th century missionary from Wales who settled in Pendinas as it was known then and built an oratory where the present church ⛪️ now stands. The church we see now was built in the early 1400s and consecrated on February 3rd, 1434.Read more
