The town is situated on the banks of the River Camel and gives easy access to the northern fringes of Bodmin Moor. The former church of St.Thomas at Camelford was destroyed just over four centuries ago, and the town was without a church people had to walk three miles to Lanteglos church to worship. Work on a new church was started in 1937 it was built right in the centre of town over looking the river Camel. Constructed of Delabole stone with slate, on August 6th 1938 the church of St.Thomas was consecrated by the Bishop of Truro. One of the gifts donated to the new church was an ancient font by the Cowlard family of Launceston.
