Egloshayle Church
Egloshayle is the parish north of the River Camel in Wadebridge with the large church. The parish church is dedicated to St Petroc and is built almost entirely in the Perpendicular Gothic style (typical of the 13th and 14th centuries). The font is older, dating back to Norman times. The stone pulpit is a little later, dating from the 15th century.
The bell-ringers of the village are celebrated in the song "The Ringers of Egloshayle". The ringers named in the song are all buried in the churchyard; their names may be seen on the headstones.
