The church and manor of St Enoder belonged in Anglo-Saxon times to the monks of Bodmin and were before 1066 held by Godric. In 1086 they were held by Robert, Count of Mortain, from the monks. At a later date St Enoder fell into lay hands and c. 1268 was given to [[Glasney College]]. The benefice was appropriated to Glasney College in 1270 and the cure of souls became a vicarage; however in 1867 it was made into a rectory as the incumbent was receiving the tithes of certain meadows formerly the yards of chapels.<ref>''Cornish Church Guide'' (1925) Truro: Blackford; p. 91</ref><ref>Thorn, C., et al., eds.
