The chapel on the hill in St Ives was a maritime chapel for sailors, but there are large and small maritime churches in Cornwall as well. Exeter University in Penryn has a project to research some of them, with money from the Heritage Fund. Look at this website: https://cornishmaritimechurches.co.uk/ In past times bishops had to defend their part of the coast, so some churches are a bit fortified. After 1808 (Grylls' Act) parishes had to bury drowned sailors in consecrated ground. Some churches are very close to the beach. In Mawnan Smith there is even a pirate's grave.
