Ludgvan history
The legendary origins of Ludgvan are attributed to the arrival of its patron saint, Saint Ludowanus. However the place-name appears to derive from the Cornish for place of ashes or burnt place. At the time of Domesday Book the manor had 3 hides and land for 15 or 30 ploughs.
Parish church
The church is dedicated to Saint Ludowanus and later jointly with Saint Paul the Apostle. The building was originally cruciform and Norman but was rebuilt in the 15th century with a tower. The feast traditionally celebrated in the parish is the Sunday nearest to 22 January in observation of the Conversion of St Paul.
Mining
Rospeath mine closed (in circa) 1856 and made large returns for the investors. There was no adit and the mine only worked to 4.5 fathoms (8.2 m) depth. The mine was reopened in December 1879 with an adit being cut, machinery erected to pump out the water and to sink a shaft.
