Parish church
Maker is a village on the Rame peninsula, at the far E of Cornwall's S coast, across the Tamar estuary from Plymouth. The parish occupies a large area of the peninsula, but there is no village of Maker: the settlements in the parish are at Kingsand to the S and Millbrook to the NW, and the church stands alone on high ground to the SW of Mount Edgcumb House and Park, an imposing 16thc. manor. The church is of c.1500, possibly incorporating the nave and chancel of an earlier church. The chancel E wall is of random red sandstone rubble and may be part of the earlier fabric; the rest of the building is of coursed red sandstone rubble. The church has N and S aisles, a S porch, an outer S aisle added as an Edgcumbe family chapel, and a W tower. There is a 12thc font, related to that at Bodmin, which was brought to Maker from St Merryn church.
