Towednack Church located in the village of the same name just outside of St Ives.

The legend of why the tower is so squat and without a spire tells that the Devil himself prevented the stonemasons from completing the tower by undoing their day's work every night.

There is also a proverb associated with the tower:

"there are no cuckolds in Towednack, because there are no horns on the church tower"
