[1] It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Truro, the archdeaconry of Cornwall and the deanery of Pydar.

[2][3] The current structure is a mixture of 12th-century, 14th-century and 15th-century architecture:[1] some of the north side of the church and the tower is 14th century[3] while the nave and south wall have some surviving 15th-century features.

[4] The church underwent major reconstruction in the 17th century, being lengthened and rebuilt in 1828 and then extensively restored in 1899.

[6] In the churchyard are two Grade II listed buildings: one is a mid 19th century chest tomb by Julef of Ladock that is 7 metres south of the east end of the church[7][8] and the other a 19th-century granite coffin on a plinth which is situated 2 metres north of the east end of the church.

[9][10] William Hennah, first lieutenant of HMS Mars is buried at Cuby Parish Church.
