Parish History
QUETHIOCK (St. Hugh), a parish, in the union of St. Germans, Middle division of the hundred of East, E division of Cornwall, 4 miles E from Liskeard. [1]
Quethiock (Cornish: Gwydhek) St Hugh is an Ancient Parish in the county of Cornwall.
The ancient parish church of St Hugh is one of the most notable in Cornwall. The place name derives from the Old Cornish cuidoc meaning wooded place.
The original church was cruciform in plan but a tower was added (probably in the 13th century) and then the aisle. There are old wagon roofs and a funeral recess (14th century). The stained glass and some other ornamental work is the handiwork of the late 19th century vicar, William Willimott , and there are three brasses (1471 to Roger Kyngdon, and 1631 to Richard Chiverton, d. 1617 and his wife). The church was restored in the 1880s after becoming virtually ruinous in the 1870s. Willimott's predecessor as vicar was the Rev Dr John Rooke Fletcher (d. 1878) who was vicar for 61 years.
There were Methodist chapels and almshouses (Directory for 1873).
The modern parish is part of the St Ive and Pensilva with Quethiock, United Benefice in the Diocese of Truro.
