Mawnan Smith (Cornish: Mownan an Gov) is a village in south Cornwall. It is situated approximately three miles south of Falmouth.
The parish church of St Mawnan and St Stephen is in Mawnan village. A second church, St Michael's, was built in the village of Mawnan Smith in 1876 and there was also a Wesleyan Methodist chapel in the village.
The village name may derive from the fact that it once had four working smithies serving the many farms in the parish. The Mawnan Anvil Trust has since restored the smithy as a working forge with a resident Artist Blacksmith and the site now also includes a Silversmith, Sign Writer and Carpenter.
