St Mabyn Parish Church, 15th-century Grade I listed church in St Mabyn, Cornwall.

The church features a Norman table-top font, granite pillars with sculpted capitals, and an 85-foot tower with carved figures of the Four Evangelists.

Records indicate Roger de Worlegan served as the first priest in 1267, while the current structure replaced an earlier church mentioned in the 12th-century Life of Saint Nectan.

The church maintains its dedication to Saint Mabyn, one of the children of Brychan, a Welsh saint and King of Brycheiniog from the 5th century.

The church underwent a £115,000 roof refurbishment in 2008, partially funded by English Heritage, ensuring its preservation for future generations.

The churchyard contains twelve Grade II listed headstones, and the interior houses two piscinas used for cleansing sacred vessels after mass.
