Carfury - Bible Christian revivals

Date: 1843-1844  ·  Place: Carfury, Cornwall  ·  Type: Local well


I have not been able to find anything written about this revival so I would be grateful for any information anyone might have. A local person told me that there was a Bible Christian revival there in 1843/4 and they met in this building, the schoolroom. The result was the building of a chapel.

The importance of this revival was that three men, Edward Hoskin and William and James Rowe, who were converted at this time, became leaders of the Bible Christians.


Carfury is a hamlet and is not easy to find. It does not seem to be on maps and even when I was only a mile away some people did not know where it was.
