The font is Norman and a fine example of the Bodmin type (carved with four faces, trees and curious creatures); in the churchyard is an inscribed stone of the 6th or 7th century. The tower is topped by figures of the Twelve Apostles.[3] Callington was formerly in the parish of South Hill.[4] St Sampson's well is supposed to have been either near the church in the grounds of the former rectory,[5] or in a nearby valley in a stream leading to the river Lynher.[6] Notable people
