Grade-Ruan is a civil parish in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. There were originally three parishes: Grade, Ruan Major and Ruan Minor. Grade was divided into four unequal parts). These were all united in 1934.
The largest settlement is at Cadgwith, and the north of the parish is part of Goonhilly Downs.
The three original parish churches are St Grada, at Grade, and the churches of Ruan Major and Ruan Minor, the last dedicated to St Rumonus. All three have towers, and Ruan Minor Church is very small. Ruan Major Church was greatly altered by Edmund Sedding in 1867 and is now a ruin.
