Sancreed (Cornish: Eglossankres) is a village and civil parish in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom, approximately three miles (5 km) west of Penzance.

The parish comprises 4,608 acres (18.65 km2) of land including Drift Reservoir, which provides drinking water for the area.

The civil parish encompasses the settlements of Bejouans, Bosvennen, Botreath, Drift, Sancreed Churchtown, Trenuggo and Tregonnebris.

Up until the 1940s there was a village public house (the Bird-in-Hand Inn)[2] opposite the church, and a thriving school.

The remains of these stone huts are still visible today as is the fogou, an underground man-made passage of unknown purpose.

At the heart of the village lies the Parish Church itself (Grade II listed), parts of the which date back to the 13th and 14th century following the usual early cruciform plan.

Within the building is a fine font of the St Ives type which also dates from the 14th century, and the rood screen has curious carvings at the base.
