The dedication is to Saint Non or Nonna, who was the mother of St David. The church is mentioned in Daphne du Maurier's "Jamaica Inn"; it is the church in which the evil vicar of Altarnun depicts himself in a painting as a wolf while the members of his congregation have the heads of sheep. The church is an active Anglican parish church in
Bolventor inn. It is bypassed by a dual carriageway section of the A30 trunk road; before the bypass was built the hamlet straddled the A30 road. Daphne du Maurier, a former resident, chose Bolventor as the setting for her novel about Cornish smugglers titled "Jamaica Inn". The inn that inspired the novel, Jamaica Inn, has stood beside the main road through the village since 1547. It is now a tourist attraction in its own right and dominates the hamlet. The small church (dedicated to the Holy Trinity) that lies to the east of the hamlet closed some years ago. A mile
