Church of St Stythian

The Church of St Stythian is a parish church with origins dating back to the 13th century for the base of the chancel, while the majority of the structure is from the 15th century. It underwent restoration in the 18th century and was heavily restored in 1873. The church is constructed from granite ashlar for the lower sections and the south aisle, with granite rubble and granite dressings elsewhere. The roofs are made of dry Delabole slate and feature granite coped gable ends.

The church has a nave and chancel under one roof, a 15th-century west tower, a 15th-century north aisle, a 19th-century north porch, and a 15th-century south aisle. The west tower is a complete three-stage structure with embattlements and pinnacles, except for the 19th-century tracery added to the three-light window above the four-centred arch west doorway. The tower features strings that divide the stages and buttresses that are set back from the corners, along with 19th-century clock faces on the middle stage and original three-light traceried louvred windows in the upper stage. Most of the church's windows were replaced in the 19th century, except for vestiges of an 18th-century flat arch in the north wall and an ancient carved stone fragment above the east window of the north aisle. The south wall includes a 15th-century three-centred priest's doorway and a 15th-century four-centred doorway.

Inside, the church features a 15th-century five-bay standard A (according to Pevsner) north arcade with two-centred arches, and a six-bay south arcade with square piers that have engaged shafts and squat four-centred arches. The walls have been stripped of plaster, and the roofs are supported by 19th-century scissor-braced structures.
