Tintagel Parish Church, Norman parish church on coastal cliffs in Tintagel, England
St Materiana's Church stands on elevated cliffs between Trevena village and Tintagel Castle, featuring Norman doorways and a 14th-century tower with battlements.
The first religious structure appeared on this location in the 6th century, while the current building dates from the late 11th century with Saxon architectural elements.
The church contains a Roman milestone from Emperor Licinius' reign, discovered in 1889 during churchyard gate restoration works and now displayed in the south transept.
The church maintains detailed parish registers dating back to 1546 for burials, 1569 for baptisms, and 1588 for marriages, providing extensive genealogical records.
The churchyard houses a medieval brass memorial from 1430 commemorating Joan Kelly, alongside a lifebuoy from the 1893 shipwreck of the barque Iota.
