The manor belonged to the Knights Templars. The living is a [perpetual] curacy in the diocese of Exeter. Value: £21. Patron, Sir B. Wrey, Bart. There is no church.
Temple was part of the Bodmin Rural District from 1894 until 1934 and located in Wadebridge Rural District from 1934 until 1968. In 1968 Wadebridge Rural District was expanded and became Wadebridge and Padstow Rural District from 1968 until 1974.
