Polyphant (Cornish: Pollefans),[1] recorded as Polefant c. 1170,[2] is a village in east Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.
It is north of the civil parish of Lewannick, five miles (8 km) west of the town of Launceston near the convergence of the River Inny and Penpont Water.
[4] The disused quarries to the north of the village, designated Polyphant SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) in 1994, were the source of an ornamental building stone, a variety of elvan.
