Davidstow ((コーンウォール語:Lanndhewi)) is a civil parish and village in north Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The village is north of Bodmin Moor straddling the A395 road about 3 miles north of Camelford.〔Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 190 ''Bude & Clovelly'' ISBN 978-0-319-23145-6〕 The hamlets of Hallworthy, Hendraburnick, Tremail and Trewassa are in the parish.〔(Cornwall ); Explore Britain〕
'Davidstow Cheddar' and 'Cathedral City' brands of cheese are produced at Davidstow Creamery which is operated by Dairy Crest using water ultimately from St David's Holy Well, next to the parish church.
A military airfield, RAF Davidstow Moor, was built near the village during the Second World War and was later used as a motor racing circuit.
==Parish Church==
'Davidstow' means ''David's Place'' and according to legend the church was founded by Saint David in the 6th century, whilst visiting his mother at nearby Altarnun. The church is large but was very much restored in 1875 so that little original work remains inside. Both the nave and the east windows are wider than usual in a Cornish church; a few benchends are interesting, one portrays a bagpiper.〔Pevsner, N. (1970) ''Cornwall'', 2nd ed. Penguin Books; p. 62〕 The parish is part of the group in the charge of the Rector of Boscastle.
