About Merther
Merther is a quaint hamlet located within the parish of St Michael Penkevil, approximately 2 miles east of Truro in Cornwall. Historically significant, it was once the churchtown of the small parish of Merther, featuring a manor house and a medieval chapel dedicated to St Cohan, though the parish church now lies in ruins. With a past population of 150 in 1931, Merther presents a unique blend of historical charm and rural tranquility, making it a notable consideration for planning applications in the region.
