Temple () is a hamlet in the parish of Blisland on Bodmin moor, Cornwall. In 1934, the parish of Temple was incorporated into Blisland parish.

These abuses came to an end in 1774 when the church first came under episcopal jurisdiction. By the mid 19th century, it had become a ruin and was rebuilt (by Silvanus Trevail) in
