South Petherwin history
St. Patern (or Padarn, Paternus) has had several candidates, which have become mixed and confused over the ages. It is believed that the father of St. Constantine of Cornwall, a Cornish King who gave up his throne to become a monk, has always been linked to the area. With the West Saxon invasion, the new King created a new diocese in the South West based at Sherborne.
Norman period
First St. Stephen’s was reduced as a monastery with the priory being moved across the Kensey to Newport. Then the ruined ancient fort of Dunheved was rebuilt as a Castle and walled town. At that time South Petherwin became the mother Church for Launceston.
