Crowan is a township and parish 4 miles south of Camborne. The church is constructed of granite in the gothic style and consists of a chancel, nave, aisles and an enbattled western tower, 70 feet high which houses 6 bells. There are several monuments to the St. Aubyn family and ancient brasses dating 1400-1599. These were bedded in slate and replaced in the aisle in 1893. In 1892 a vestry and organ chamber were built and an organ installed. The register of baptisms dates from the year 1692, marriages 1696 and burials 1663.
