Manaccan

Manaccan is village about five miles from Falmouth and just south of Helford on the Lizard Peninsula. The parish church is dedicated to St Mannacus and St Dunstan on the site of a Norman church. The remains can be seen in the impressive Norman entrance with the rest of the building being thirteenth and fifteenth century. The Boden Vean Fogou is nearby.

Our visit

Having travelled south from Helford we reached the attractive and ancient village of Manaccan. The Cornish flag was flying proudly outside of the primary school. The church dating back to the twelfth century has an old figure tree growing out of it's south wall (heavily trimmed back when we visited). The village is well worth a visit.
