The parish church is dedicated to St Julitta (Juliot) and stands in an isolated location above the valley of the River Valency at grid reference SX 129 912 The parish church of Lanteglos by Camelford and the castle chapel at Tintagel are also dedicated to St Julitta. The church is in the St Juliot civil parish of northeast Cornwall,

The church predates the Norman Conquest. Hannett was mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086. The Dark Ages church building was enlarged in the 13th century when transepts were added

The chapel of St Julitta was acquired in 1238 by the canons of St Stephens by Launceston and before 1269 was annexed to their church of St Gennys. In the late 15th century a south aisle and porch were added to the church.

At the Reformation it was separated from St Gennys and became a donative served by perpetual curates who were paid £7 annually. It became a rectory in 1865. There was formerly a north transept which was removed in the Victorian restoration.
