Mission Church of St Mary and Adjoining Lych Gate and Chest Tomb

The Mission Church of St Mary, along with its adjoining lych gate and chest tomb, dates from the 1850s. It is constructed from local rubble stone with granite dressings and features dry Delabole slate roofs with coped gable ends. The church has a rectangular aisle-less plan, with the lych gate located at the ritual west (northwest) end, a south porch, and a probable vestry towards the east end of the south wall. Designed in the Early English style, the southwest elevation includes a depressed two-centred arch leading to the lych gate on the left, followed by a two-light window, a gable-ended porch with a pointed-arched doorway and planked door, another two-light window, a vestry projection, and a single-light window, all of which are lancets (boarded up at the time of survey). The east end features three stepped lancets and a gable ventilator, while the west end has a bell-cote supported by wooden brackets. The Kenwyn Road side of the vestry has original iron gates. The interior was not inspected. Additionally, there is an early 19th-century granite chest tomb with a chamfered plinth and moulded cornice to the lid, which has a worn inscription and is located adjacent to the vestry.
