Lanteglos Church

Lanteglos church is to the south west of Camelford and is dedicated to St Julitta. It is a listed building and was pre-dated by a Norman cruciform church, parts of which still survive. The north walls of the nave and chancel are Norman but have been restored as has the north transept arch. The church was rebuilt in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. In the churchyard are a number of medieval crosses one found in the immediate locality is an equal limbed cross. It was once on top of a later discovered inscribed stone. The inscription on the stone is in Roman capitals and in English and reads "Alseth and Generth wrought this family pillar for Aelwyne's soul and for themselves". The stone is thought to date between the 9th and 11th centuries and the cross and inscribed stone are now Scheduled Monuments. The largest of the other crosses was found at a cross roads at Valley Truckle and is a wheel headed design with cross faces front and back. Other crosses within the churchyard are ones that originally marked the junctions of roads within the area.

The church is reached from the main road off the A39 north of Knightsmill running through Lanteglos.
