Like most churches in Cornwall, the original church was probably a small building with two cells, a chancel and nave and is one of three churches in Cornwall dedicated to St Piran.

In 1881 the church was described as ″... this dilapidated edifice″ and all the pews, benches, etc. were removed, along with the floor, and all the graves, bar one, ″... were levelled, and over the commingled human dust will be laid for sanitary purposes, a covering of fresh soil″. The one grave that was sealed and preserved belonged to the Reverend Johnson. During the 18th and 19th century the landscape surrounding the village supported a number of tin and copper mines the last of which closed in 1900. The barque Saluto was wrecked at Cudden Point, Perranuthnoe, in December 1911.
