Towednack history
Towednack gold hoard
In December 1931 a hoard of gold ornaments was found in the parish of Lady Downs in Cornwall. The gold is very fine, and probably came from Ireland, and they date from the late Bronze Age.
Parish church
The church is dedicated to St Tewennocus and did not become parochial until 1902. It was built in the 13th century and has a plain tower. A south aisle was added in the 15th century. The font is of granite, 1720, and stands on a base which is an inverted Norman font.
