Tremaine Church

Tremaine Church

Tremaine churchyard was originally more curved in shape which suggests that it may have been a Celtic religious site. The church building has Norman origins and some Norman features can still be seen in the north wall. The font is also from the Norman period, dated at around 25-50 years after the Norman Conquest. The first record of the church is from 1150, when it was given by William de Bottreaux to Launceston priory. The dedication to St Winwaloe may have arisen from the Breton origins of the Bottreaux family. The tower is thought to have been added in the 14th Century and then the church was rebuilt in the 16th Century.
