Built in 1885 the church features a serpentine pulpit which was donated by the old serpentine factory at nearby Poltesco.

In the early 1880s Mr William Trevenen of Helston gave half an acre of land to St Keverne parish for the purposes of building a church and burial ground.

Revd Sutton and his parishioners took five years to raise money to start the building. The initial cost was £500.

The new church and burial ground were consecrated and dedicated at a service on Thursday 20th August 1885 and the church hall was built some years later in 1911.
