St Columb Minor Church, Grade I listed church in Newquay, England.
St Columb Minor Church features a 115-foot battlemented tower, which stands as the second highest church tower in Cornwall.
The church site transformed from a pagan worship location to a Christian establishment through Celtic missionaries before construction of the current building in 1350.
The church maintains records of community milestones, religious ceremonies, and local events that document the social development of Newquay through centuries.
The church continues regular religious services and welcomes visitors who want to examine its architectural features and historical elements.
The structure contains a chancel, nave, and both north and south aisles with pointed arches that demonstrate medieval ecclesiastical architecture.
