St Endellion (Cornish: Sen Endelyn) is a civil parish and hamlet in north Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.
[2] The parish takes its name from Saint Endelienta, who is said to have evangelised the district in the fifth century and to have been one of the children of King Brychan.
"Roscarrek Muer" is an early form of the place-name Roscarrock and it means "great rock roughland".
[9] In 1929, Walter Frere, Bishop of Truro, revived the collegiate foundation with new statutes, such that the holder of the Rectoral prebend would be resident and paid; while the other three prebends would be honorific, but with spiritual obligations in regularly supporting their co-prebends in prayer, and in meeting in an annual chapter.
[11] While the actual date of foundation of the church is unknown legend tells that St Endelienta, when she was dying, asked her friends to have her body placed on a sledge pulled by bullocks (or calves) and to be buried where they stopped, that being the very spot where the church now stands.
The cheese is made by Cornish Country Larder, a firm founded by John Gaylard in the mid-1990s and still a family-run concern.
