Boscastle Forrabury - St Symphorian - Grade II* - 15th Century Restored Of the two churches which serve Boscastle, the one at Forrabury, high on the bare hill south of the village, is not as easy to miss as Minster, tucked in the woodland of the Valency Valley. Of all the thousands who visit the picturesque harbour, the only shelter for miles around on this forbidding coast, few climb the hill through the old village, its streets reminiscent of Clovelly, with the deep storm water drain running perilously beside the narrow road. But both the village and the church are worth a visit, showing a different side of Boscastle life to the business of the harbour area. By road, follow the directions to Tintagel then turn right after leaving the village behind.
