The parish takes its name from Saint Endelienta, who is said to have evangelised the district in the fifth century and to have been one of the children of King Brychan. Two wells near the church are named after her. The name is included in the electoral ward of St Minver and St Endellion,[3][4] which includes Polzeath and Rock, with a population at the 2011 census of 3268.[5]
