Historical Note
Bounded by Tregony, Veryan, Philleigh and St Michael Penkevil, the church town of Ruan has a population of around 250 people. Originally known as Laryhorn, the village was, from the mid 12th century onwards, the site of a castle of the Lercedekne family and the main settlement was at Sheepstor (Sheeptstall) located towards Tregony, where the Pomeroy family also built a castle. In 1334, John Lecedekne was granted permission for the castle by Edward II. Before the castle was demolished in the 19th century, it was described as having a 40’ keep, seven towers and possibly an outer courtyard.

Road maps as early as 1685 show the main coach road from London to Lands End ran through nearby Philleigh, crossing the road at the King Harry Ferry and Tolverne. Ruan Lanihorne also stood on the old coach road when the Kings Head public house served many a patron in its time.
