St Mewan

St Mewan ((コーンウォール語:Sen Mewen)) is a civil parish and village in south Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.
The village is approximately one mile (1.6 km) west of St Austell.〔Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 200 ''Newquay & Bodmin'' ISBN 978-0-319-22938-5〕 It is a small settlement, comprising the parish church, rectory, a school and nearby farms. St Mewan parish includes the villages of Sticker, Trelowth, Trewoon, and most of Polgooth.〔() 〕 An electoral ward with the name ''St Mewan'' also exists. The population at the 2011 census was 3,402.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ward population 2011 )
==Parish church==
The church is dedicated to Saint Mewan, a sixth-century Celtic saint who was born in Wales, visited Cornwall, and is mostly venerated in Brittany. The current building dates from the 13th century and is mentioned in a bishops' inquisition of 1294 as the 'Ecclesia de St Mewany'.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Parish of St Mewan )〕 It was, however, substantially rebuilt in 1854 by George Edmund Street〔N. Pevsner, ''Cornwall'', 2nd ed. p.191. Penguin Books
(1970)〕 and enlarged in 1890.〔() 〕 The church tower is of only two stages and is built of granite blocks. Local legend suggests that the original builders were prevented from raising it higher by the devil, who threw down their stones each night.〔W. Penaluna, ''An Historical survey of the County of Cornwall'' vol.2, p.93 (1838)〕
