St Gluvias

St Gluvias is a settlement in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The village is now a suburb on the northern edge of Penryn which is two miles (3.2 km) northwest of Falmouth. St Gluvias was also the name of an ancient parish centred on the settlement and its church. The parish historically covered an extensive area, including Penryn. The borough of Penryn was removed from the parish of St Gluvias in 1866, and in 1934 Penryn's borough boundaries were enlarged to take in the settlement of St Gluvias. The civil parish of St Gluvias after 1934 therefore excluded its namesake settlement and the church after which it was named, and instead just covered the rural northern parts of the old parish which had not been absorbed into Penryn. The civil parish was renamed Ponsanooth in 2021.
