St Nun's Chapel
There is evidence of a Chapel of Ease (to save the walk to and from Creed parish church) in Grampound during mediaeval times, thought to originally have been dedicated to St Naunter although it was rededicated to a different saint on more than one occasion. Despite being in good repair in 1745, by Victorian times the chapel was in ruins and was in use as an animal pen for the market. In 1868 it was rebuilt, re-using a few older architectural elements that are thought may have been salvaged from the ruin of the previous building.
