St Just In Roseland Church 14/2/2026

Seeing a rare sunrise without any rain due for one of the few times this year so far , I visited one of (in my opinion) the most beautiful & peaceful spots in Cornwall. Unfortunately, when I got there, the tide was out (yes, I know I should have checked before) and the low rising sun wasn't lighting the creek, so I didn't think my footage was particularly inspiring (I know what some of you will say about that haha). So, I thought I'd see what it looked like in black & white, and quite liked the outcome, so I hope you do too. St Just in Roseland Church is one of Cornwall’s most visited churches. The 13th century church is set amongst beautiful gardens beside a peaceful tidal creek in the village of St. Just, on The Roseland, South Cornwall, near to the village of St. Mawes. It is set in riverside gardens planted with semitropical shrubs and trees, many of which are species rare in England. The church is on the edge of a tidal creek beside the Carrick Roads on the Fal Estuary just outside the main village. The path from the road to the church is lined with granite blocks carved with quotations and verses taken from the Bible. A local legend tells of Joseph of Arimathea bringing his boy nephew, Jesus, to Cornwall, and that he landed at St Just in Roseland. The church is on the site of a 6th century Celtic chapel, and for 400 years after its foundation it was served by clergy from the adjacent cell of Lanzeague, until Roseland was taken over by the Saxon Bishops of Crediton and Exeter. Robert, Bishop of Exeter, gave St Just Church to the Canons of Plympton Priory in 1140, but the patronage was bought back in 1190 by John le Sor, Lord of Tolverne for a yearly sum of 13s 4d, which would be paid out of the Benefice to the Priory. The present church was dedicated to St Just on 14th August 1261, by Walter, Bishop of Exeter, and the Chancel, with its double piscina, is of this date. The parish registers date from 1538. Thank you for watching. #Cornwall #drone #cinematic #sunrise #church #The Roseland #Fal Estuary
