This casket rests in the south aisle wall and is thought to be of Sicilian origin given by Walter of Coultances in 1177. In the churchyard is a ‘holy well’ whose water was used to remedy eye problems. Bodmin is former county town of Cornwall and is situated next to the breathtaking Bodmin moor which includes popular treks to Roughter and Brown Willy.
