Historical Note
Bounded by Tregony, Veryan, Philleigh and St Michael Penkevil, the church town of Ruan has a population of around 250 people. Originally known as Laryhorn, the village was, from the mid 12th century onwards, the site of a castle of the Lercedekne family and the main settlement was at Sheepstor (Sheeptstall) located towards Tregony, where the Pomeroy family also built a castle. In 1334, John Lecedekne was granted permission for the castle by Edward II. Before the castle was demolished in the 19th century, it was described as having a 40' keep, seven towers and possibly an outer courtyard.
Historical Note Continued
The parish church was dedicated to St Remous (or Remon) in 1321. It has a chancel and a nave, a north isle, and a south transcript. The single tower houses a ring of two bells. In later years a stained-glass window was installed in 1866. The Rev John Whitaker was Rector of Ruan Lanihorne for 30 years. Road maps as early as 1685 show the main coach road from London to Lands End ran through nearby Philleigh, crossing the road at the King Harry Ferry and Tolverne. Ruan Lanihorne also stood on the old coach road when the Kings Head public house served many a patron in its time.
Historical Note Furthermore
The creek at Ruan is a bird lovers paradise and provides a haven for waders and waterfowl. The gently rolling hills are leafy and are a joy for a walking enthusiast and explorers.
