A walk through Lanherne-St. Mawgan in Cornwall to the Chapel of St. Joseph-St. Anne.
St Jame's Holywell, Ball, St Mawgan, nr Newquay, Cornwall
Above the Vale of Lanherne, pass the back entrance to Newquay airport, (if you're coming from Newqual/Watergate bay) turn left into Carloggas and then second left into the small hamlet of Ball. You'll see the well just a little further, with its ruined laundry next to it. It looks a little worse for ware, but it could be that it's about to get a restoration. There's definately been a thinning of the trees. The nunnery of Lanherne (Carmelite) is further down the into the valley.

Phillack Church
Standing on the side of a hill overlooking the town of Hayle, Phillack Church is a very gothic-looking parish church which was largely rebuilt between 1856 and 1857 by English architect William White who was the architect behind the building and rebuilding of many churches in the British Isles, as well as three churches in South Africa and one in Madagascar.
Before the Victorian rebuilding of the church, which is dedicated to SS. Felicitas & Piala, the church building dated from the 12th century with the tower dating from the 15th. However, this site has long been a religious site. This is proven by the rare Chi-Rho Stone, now built in to a porch, which shows that this was an important site in very early Christian times. There are also two Medieval crosses in the churchyard dating from the same date and an inscribed stone which may be a re-used Bronze Age menhir.

Places to see in ( St Columb Major - UK )
St Columb Major is a civil parish and town in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. Often referred to locally as St Columb, it is situated approximately seven miles southwest of Wadebridge and six miles east of Newquay. The designation Major distinguishes it from the nearby settlement and parish of St Columb Minor on the coast. An electoral ward simply named St Columb exists with a population at the 2011 census of 5,050.
Twice a year the town plays host to hurling, a medieval game once common throughout Cornwall but now only played in St Columb and St Ives. It is played on Shrove Tuesday and then again on the Saturday eleven days later. The game involves two teams of several hundred people (the 'townsmen' and the 'countrymen') who endeavour to carry a silver ball made of apple wood to goals set two miles (3 km) apart, making the parish, around 25 square miles in area, the de facto largest sports ground in the world.
St Columb is situated in mid-Cornwall, about 5 miles (8 km) inland from the north coast. The parish covers an area of 12,884 acres (5,214 ha) or 20.1 square miles (52 km2). Its highest point, at 709 ft (216 m), is Castle an Dinas, the site of an Iron Age hill fort about 2 miles (3.2 km) east of St Columb. Much of the land in the parish is used for farming (both arable and pastoral), with small areas of woodland. There is also some moorland in the generally slightly higher northern and eastern parts of the parish, notably part of the Goss Moor in the southeast, Castle Downs below Castle an Dinas (east) and an area of moorland adjoining Rosenannon Downs (northeast). The Vale of Lanherne, the valley of the River Menalhyl (see below) is famed for its beauty and occupies the area to the west of the town, connecting St Columb and St Mawgan churchtown.
St Columb occupies a plateau at about 300 ft (90 m) elevation. The north part of the town (known as 'Bridge') descends into the Vale of Lanherne, having a minimum elevation of approximately 165 ft (50 m). It was originally a linear settlement built on the main road running north-east to south-west, but modern estates have since been built, extending the town to the south and east.
The A39 main road runs north to south through the parish. Until the late 1970s it went through the town but a bypass now carries traffic east of St Columb. The A30 dual carriageway also runs through the southeastern part of the parish north of Goss Moor. The Par-Newquay railway line does not enter St Columb parish but forms part of its southern boundary. A small part of the parish is occupied by a corner of Newquay Airport, which is Cornwall’s principal civil airport.
