Biscovey hamlet is part of St Blazey parish, 3 miles (4.8 km) east of St Austell. The Biscovey Stone is the shaft of an ancient Celtic cross. It was inscribed, but the text is no longer readable now. There are several theories about the stone; one says it dates from around 600 AD to show the Saxon advance into the county, another puts the date at around 900 AD. The stone served as a gate post but in 1896 it was moved to St Mary's Church. The featured travel news widget shows any traffic updates for St Blazey in real time too.
