St Just in Penwith Parish Church, Medieval parish church in St Just, Cornwall, England

This granite church features a tall west tower with three stages and two aisles built with alternating window patterns and limestone arcades.

The present structure dates from the 15th century, replacing an earlier church from 1334, with only part of the chancel remaining from that period.

Two medieval wall paintings inside depict Saint George and a warning about breaking the Sabbath, while carved limestone piers display family shields.

The church opens daily from 10 AM to 4 PM, offering street parking and level access, located on Church Street in St Just, Cornwall TR19 7HA.

The Selus Stone, dating from the late 5th or early 6th century, bears a Latin inscription referring to Salomon of Cornwall, known as Saint Selevan.
