Mevagissey (/ˌmɛvəˈɡɪzi/; Cornish: Lannvorek) is a village, fishing port and civil parish in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.

Mevagissey village centre consists of narrow streets with many places to eat and shops aimed at the tourist trade.

The church was dedicated to Saints Meva and Ida in 1259 by Bishop Bronescombe and in 1329 Sir Otho Bodrugan appropriated it to Glasney College.

[1] Towards the end of the 17th century, Porthhilly merged with the hamlet of Lamoreck (or Lamorrick) to make the new village.

[12][13] Mevagissey lighthouse was built in 1896 to mark the south breakwater that protects the small harbour.

[citation needed] The harbour also offers tourist fishing trips and there is a regular summer passenger ferry to Fowey.

In May 2019 the sole partner at the Mevagissey GP surgery announced that she was handing back the contract, and villagers faced a trip to St Austell to see a doctor.

[22] Harvey Kurzfield of Kehillat Kernow described the decision to restore the signage as "outrageous and completely unfeeling" and urged Jewish people to boycott the village.

[20] The Heligan estate is located on the steep slopes above Mevagissey, albeit mostly in the adjoining civil parish of St Ewe.

Mevagissey House is the vicarage from the first book 'Over Sea Under Stone', where Jane first meets the mysterious Mr Hastings.

In an episode of the 1990s BBC children's television series Maid Marian and Her Merry Men, the Sheriff of Nottingham (played by Tony Robinson) says that "The country is suffering under the worst cold spell since King Arthur sat on The Magic Icicle of Mevagissey".

The inaugural episode of the popular BBC Two television cooking series Two Fat Ladies was filmed primarily in Mevagissey and the surrounding countryside.
