This small village is situated on the road that goes to the end of this peninsular in South East Cornwall. The elegant church with its spire is dedicated to St James but the village is thought to be named after St Anthony or possibly Ant's Farm. The old bench ends in the church have been incorporated into the pulpit and the stalls in the chancel;. There is also an attractive monumental brass of 1428 to Lady Majorie Arundell. A short distance away is Anthony House, the ancestral home of the Carews and the church has several monuments to members of this family.
