Lanivet (Cornish: Lanneves[1]) is a village and civil parish in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.

The parish includes the hamlets of Bodwanick, Bokiddick, Lamorick, St Ingunger, Trebell, Tregullon, Tremore, and Woodly.

Renovations to the porch, nave and aisles were completed in that year along with the extension of the burial ground by enclosing an adjacent field.

[citation needed] About a quarter of a mile from the church are the remains of St Benet's, a monastery of the Benedictine order, said to have been subordinate to Monte Cassino, in Italy, or according to others, Clairvaux in Burgundy.

[12] St Benet was restored by, its then owner, Charles Eldon Sargeant in 1878, and is described by The Cornishman newspaper as "... a charming and picturesque place".

[13] Near to the village is located Lesquite Quoit, a ceremonial funerary monument built around 3500–2600 BC, one of only 20 portal dolmens surviving in the United Kingdom.

[19][20] Thomas Hardy came to Lanivet in August 1872 to visit the home of Emma Gifford where he was introduced to her parents at Kirland House.
