St Erme is a small rural parish in central Cornwall, England, a few miles north‑west of Truro and within easy reach of Newquay. Set on gently rolling farmland, it includes the village of Trispen and a scattering of hamlets; good road links have made it popular with commuters to nearby towns while agriculture remains important to the local economy.
The parish is centred on a medieval church dedicated to St Hermes, with historic fabric and later restorations, and community life gravitates around the church, village hall and local clubs. A modest mix of small businesses and light industry sits alongside traditional farming, giving the area a balance of Cornish rural character and modern commuter influence.
