St Keverne Parish Churches
The Parish of St. Keverne with Coverack encompasses a large part of the south east Lizard peninsular. There are two Anglican churches in the parish, St. Keverne, which dates from the 15th Century and St. Peter`s at Coverack, built in the latter part of the 19th Century. The parish is part of Kerrier deanery which is in the Diocese of Truro, Cornwall. There are also two Methodist churches at St. Keverne and Ponsongath. This web site is mainly concerned with the Anglican churches. Though there is a lot of inter church activity. The churches of the parish cater for a variety of styles of worship and spiritual needs.

St Keverne Band
The St Keverne band is the most southerly band on mainland Britain. The village of St Keverne has maintained a band for over 100 years and encouraged a large number of players to achieve success at various levels of music making. The band is totally self-financing and believe that their efforts provide valuable opportunities for all the people of the Lizard Peninsula.

We are a small friendly club in the beautiful historic village of St Keverne in Cornwall. We welcome new members regardless of age or gender. No experience necessary but please bring clean flat soled shoes or slippers to wear on the mats.
League matches are played from October to March for those who wish to participate.
We also play a number of "friendlies" outside the season. Please contact the secretary if you wish to arrange a match. We would also be pleased to hear from visiting teams from "up country" who wish to arrange a "friendly". Alternatively visitors to Cornwall might like to call in on club night for a roll up. Anyone wishing to do so is advised to contact the secretary Virginia Malcom at virginia.malcolm@stkevernebowls.glenmor.org.uk to check this does not conflict with a match.
