Altarnun

Altarnun (St Nonna’s Altar) is a village on the northern edge of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. It is centred on St Nonna’s Church, which dates mainly from the 15th century and stands beside a stream. The village has long served the surrounding farming area and is known for its association with the writer Daphne du Maurier. Today, Altarnun consists of stone houses, a small number of local services, and direct access to open moorland.
