TRABOE. (Trahorabold 1090,Tregwurabo 977,Treveraboth 1085,Trurabo

1250,Trevrabo 1650) cf. Trebah in Constantine, anciently Treverybou,

Tribby in St.Columb Minor (Treribiow,1650).

Fields on Traboe and Tregeage: Chapel Parks. (There was an ancient

chapel here,Gew (17),Brow,P Nest,P Venton (10),P Leck,Kevuggan,P an

Carrack (6),The Nellan,P an oghen'the oxen field'.

In AD 977 King Edgar, by a charter now preserved in Exeter Cathedral

Library, granted to his Comes or Earldorman, Aetrhelweard, the estates

of Trefwurabo (Traboe) Trefvaloc(Trevallack)- Crucwaeth (Grugath) and

Trefdewig (Trethewy in St.Martins).

The boundaries of these are given separately in Anglo Saxon. Those of

Traboe are as follows:

This is the land mark to Trefwarabo. First at Pollicerr (Polkerth).

Then on by the dike and along the way (probably the ridge way or lane

from Treleage Mill to St.Martins). Then off the way, then on the

little dike east half way to Poll-haescen('the Pool of Sedge') adown

by the brook to Ryt Cendeurion (i.e. the ford of the Cendevrion,

which as we have seen in the Bounds of Lesneage was clearly the Upper

part of the Durra Stream running through Tregidden to the Gillan

Creek). Then by the brook to Cam nith bran (='Crow's Nest Cam. A

map of Goonhilly in 1815 shows a Carn-Vrahan(Crow's Cam)planted with

a fox covert on the edge of the moor between Kenhewas and Telan) and

to Deumaen Corvan (=the Two Stones of Carfan='ridge'. RMN. These

rocks probably stood on the downs near Croft Pascoe pool, where the

six estates meet). Then on and along the way to Cruedraenock

(='Thorny Barrow'). Then on to Carrecwynn (='White Rock') and again

to Pollicerr (Polkerth).

These bounds seem to include more than the present estate of Trab6e

and its Downs, as they extend to the Durra stream on the east, thus

taking in Resuic,Roscrowgy and Kenhewas.

On the Goonhilly side they appear to follow the lines of subsequent

views. In 1290 (m) for instance, Edmund, Earl of Cornwall, confirmed

to the Monks of St.Michael's Mount as much of his moor of Goenhil as

lay within these limits: From the bound between the vill of Rosiwyk

and Trevrabe, then as far as the way near Crucaresken,thence to

Honesdu (or Bonesdue),thence to Ponsdonfili,thence to

Grelenbesek,(Grelyn='Herd Pool RMN) thence to the great way of

Crugdrahenoc then to Crugkennywol and so to the boundary between

Crunent (Trewince ?) and Polkere (Polkerth) (n).

Again, the bounds of the right of the Manor of Traboe in Goonhilly

Downs as viewed in 1734 were as follows:

From Resewick Water to the conduit near it from thence to a rock

called Venton Ely,(?Fenton yly,'remedy well'RMN) from thence in a

strait line (leaving Traboe Borough on the right hand), to a road

called Vounder Tudor, and so in a direct line to Meane mellin or the

yellow stone (o)from thence in a direct line to the NE corner of

Croft Pascoe and along by that hedge in a direct line to a rock very

near the corner of the hedge of the Croft to the right hand of SE of

the Dry Tree, from thence along by two white rocks lying in a line to

the Green Borough, a little to the left hand or north of Polkerth

Water from thence strait to Trewince Borough and directly dividing it

(one half being Mr.Gregor's the other Sir F.Vyvyan's) and from the

Borough to the westernmost corner of Polkerth Croft.

By a charter of 1059, King Edward the Confessor, conferred Traboe and

the three other estates name in Edgar's Charter of 977 (but not

Lesneage) on Bishop Aldred. Not one of them is, however, mentioned in

Domesday Book (1085) but the Cartulary of St.Michael's Mount (MS at

Hatfield) contains a charter (p)whereby Robert,Count of Mortain, who

became Lord of Cornwall about 1075 and died about 1090, conferred on

the Monks of St.Michael's Mount, three 'acres' in Manech or Manacich

(Meneage) namely Traaraboth(Traboe) Lismanach (Lesneage),Treguavers

(Tregevas in St.Martins and Carmaheiek (CarvaUack in St.Martin's) .

This charter, though spurious in part, is confirmed in substance by a

note in the Custumal of Otterton Priory (MS penes Lord Coleridge)

that the Church of St.Michael in Cornwall had by gift of Count Rober

two ploughlands in Tremaine (St.Martins),three in Trahorabold, three

in Lismanehec,two in Tregavers and two in Carmaheleck, besides

pasture for all their beasts (i.e. on Goonhilly).

This property, known in the later middle ages as the Manor of Traboe,

followed the fortunes of the Mount for over five centuries, passing

with it from the Benedictines to the Brigettine Nuns of Syon Abbey

about 1420, then to the Crown at the dissolution of the Monasteries

in 1539, from the Crown by grant to the Earls of Salisbury. One of

these sold the Mount on the eve of the Civil War to Francis Basset

and sold the Manor of Traboe in 1652 to John Gregor of Trewarthenick.

The latter's representative, Sr Lewis Molesworth,Bart. of

Trewarthenick sold the Manor in severalties in 1909.

In 1283 Trevorabo appears as one of the Tithings of the Hundred of

Kerrier.

The Cartulary of St.Michael's Mount Priory (MS at Hatfield) contains

some 13th C charters relating to its holding in Meneage. The monks

built a Grange or 'New Hall' at Gear in St.Martins before 1259- and

the place is still called Helnoweth (=New Hall). Below this at the

creekhead, they had a mill in 1262, but the chief Manor Mill was

St.Michaels Mill or Mill Mehall (qv) in the valley below Lesneage.

At Trewarthenick are Court Rolls and other Manorial documents from

1422 onwards. From these it appears that the leasehold lands of the

Manor consisted of

Traboe,Polkerth,Tregeage,Trelaminny,Polpidnick,Lesneage,Polherno and

Mill Mehall all in St.Keverne;

Tretharrup,Tregeddras,Trecoose,Carvallock,Gear,Helnoweth and Bonnal,

all in St.Martins. Tregevas in St.Martins,Tregidden and Mallacorne in

St.Keverne were free tenements paying 'chief yents.
TREBARVETH (Treberveth 1270,1310,1364)cf. Trebarveth in Perranuthnoe,

Trebarva in Constantine,Resparveth in Probus, etc. The word perveth

enters into many Cornish names and aberveth,'within', is a common

adverb, cf. Welsh perfedd='middle'. HJ and RMN

Fields: Joy Rocks,Park Joy,Henwell, P Olvin.
TREDINNICK(Trevedenec 1309,1310,Tredenek 1359,Tredinnecke

1615).Several places in Cornwall bear the name of Tredinnick, but

their old forms are widely different. In this case the word appears

Treredeenek,'Fern brake Town'.

Fields; Gew(17,Jack Snipe Moor.

By charter dated 1306 (PRO Ancient Deed A.10294). John de Calvo

Monte,Lord of Trenewed (Trenoweth),granted to Pasco de Treredenec,the

lands called Nanstrelaec(=Treleage Valley) bounded thus: 'From a

place called Crous-Hervy. (This place is still known,see Trenoweth),

as the big dike goes to Gweal Kephannoe (Gweal Gavineck in 1543),then

north to the land of Treredenec,dividing Nanstrelaec from Trelaec

vighan, and so as the bounds divide the land of Clement and Francis

of Tregeminion in Morvah,Tywardreath and Landwednack (^'brambly

field') to Crous Hervy.

Tregarne was held freely under the Manor of Rosuick Lucy's. In 1404

it was itself esteemed a Manor. The Lord was Sir William Lambron and

a Reeve's Roll of that year (MS in Exeter public library) mentions

the Manor Mill as being rebuilt. The heiress of Lambron married

Arundell of Lanherne and their descendant Sir John Arundell held the

Manor of Tregarne in 1659 when a survey of it was made, now in my

possession. From this it appears that there were four holdings in

Tregarne, three in Helwin and Tregarne Mill. At the general sale of

the Arundell estates circa 1800 the Manor was bought by the Lemons of

Carclew and so passed by heiress to the Tremaynes.

TREGEAGE (Tregeke 1482,Tregege 1484,Tregeag Veor 1623). For field

names see Traboe. This was part of the Manor of Traboe until 1909.

Tregidden was held under the Manor of Rosuick Lucy's by the

Reskymers, who had the Mill of their Manor of Meneage here. In 1341

the Mill house was called Chyenmelyn and its fields Pack en melyn and

Erouw Endemeyn (?'Acre in Demesne').

There was also a Fulling Mill or Tucking Mill on the Tregidden, named

in 1506. It stood a little further up the valley, below Trewoon,

where a field is still called 'Park Truckshare', 'Gullers Close'.

TREGONAN or Tregoning (Tregonan 1240,1303)cf. Tregoning in

Breage,Tregonan in St.Ewe='Conans Town'

The Barton of Tregoning seems to have been part of the Church lands

of St.Keverne at an early date. It was held with them by John Pulein

in 1201, when he granted it to Hervey Fitz Gilbert (Reskymer), a

clerk. Hervey granted Tregonan with other lands to Sibella, the

daughter of Richard Fitz Yve, who with her husband Thomas de Pridias

in 1235 surrendered them to the Abbot of Beaulieu,now Parson of

St.Kaveran. Tregonan became a 'grange' or demesne farm of the Abbey

and in 1359 the Abbot had a royal grant of 'free warren' there. The

place was afterwards a small cell of monks from Beaulieu. Leiand, who

visited it in 1535,states that the monks had gone home to their head

house, but the ruins of their Monastery remained. At the fall of

Beaulieu Abbey, Tregoning passed to the Crown and thence into lay

hands. John Bogans was the owner in 1603,when he was sued by the

Tithe owners of the parish for refusing to pay tithes on this Barton

on the plea that it had been the demesne land of a religious house

and therefore exempt from all tithes. To prove this witnesses were

produced who remembered "divers old walls of houses standing in

Tregonyn which were called the religiowse houses of Tregonyn and that

religiowse men which in tymes past dwelt in the Cell did till and

manure the lands to their own proper uses for their maintenance ".

One witness aged 80, remembered seeing the ruins of "a religiowse

house and a Churche at Tregonyn". Dr. Borlase (u) visiting the place

as late as 1755 saw 'several considerable ruins' but they have all

disappeared now.


TREGOWRIS (Tregevres 1260,1318,Tregaures 1332,Tregourys 1480).

Fields The Minnows,? an Tule,Neckett or Meckatta,P an Devas(='Sheep

Joy,P an Treath,P an Meage,Pan Vor, P Roy.

In 1318 Tregefres and Hengeyther were held by John de Erysi under the

Reskymer's Manor of Meneage. They were sold about 1716 by Richard

Erisey.Esq. to Anthony Hosken. Hengither is now merged in Tregowris.


TRELAMINNY (Trevemyny 1345,Treclamynie 1588). This farm is partly in

St.Martins. It belonged to the Manor of Traboe.

Fields P Nichol, Gew (17) P Noweth.
TRELAN or TRELAN VEOR. (Trelant 1085,Trelan mur,Trelen

1313),probably Tre-lands 'the town on the Landa or Moor', It is still

Trelan and Trelan Vean are two oases between Goonhilly and Crowza

Downs. Trelant appears as a small Manor in Domesday,1085. It was a

Tithing of the Hundred of Kerrier in 1283.

Robert Breto, was Lord of Trelan before 1250(see Kenhewas) and Osbert

Ie Sor was Lord of Trelanmur circa 1260 when he granted the Moor of

Goen Wordu to Thomes de Trelanbihan. John Ie Sor held a Knight's fee

inTrelanmour,Aranon,Gergredun,Trefinweth,Trewoethyn,Boskernan,Porthco

ferek etc. in 1318.

The chief seat of the Norman family of Ie Sor in Cornwall was

Tolverne but a junior branch held Trelan until Edmun Ie Sor died in

1356 leaving two daughters . From one of these the Manor of Trelan

descended to the Petyts of Ardevora and so to the

Killigrews.Alexander Killigrew sold it before 1526 to Stephen Gayer

of Trerobrase.


TRELAN VEAN pron. Trellanvean (Trelanbighan 1250,1300,Trelangyghan

1350).i.e. Little Trelan.

To these the Tithe Award of 1840 adds. Carrabones (v),P Pyas,The

Warren,P Studies,Yewherns garden,? an Drea (3),P Skilly,Longstone and

Trelanvean was separated from Trelan as early as 1278 when Thomas de

Trelan byghan was Lord of it. In 1285 he was building a mill in the

valley near Roscrowgey (q.v) In 1659 Trelanvean was owned or occupied

by a well to do farmer, John Hayme. In 1800 it belonged to the

Harrises of Camborne and so came to the Hartleys.


TRELEAGE (Trelahec l270,Trelac muer and bihan 1300,Treleague 1620).

Fields Walk Lane,Cross f.

Treleage was bought by a mercantile family of Totnes and Helston

called Bogans or Buggins at the end of the 16th C. They built a

mansion here of which a part remains in the present farm house.
TRELEASE (Trelis 1201,Treles 1280,1325,Trelease 1621) pron Trelayse

=?the town of the Court, possibly referring to Lesneage which adjoins

it. The Bounds of Lesneage in 967(qv),must have included Trelease but

in the 13th C the two estates were in different hands. By Charter

circa 1201 John fitz Bernard gave the monks of St.Michael's Mount 4/"

in perpetuity out of his land of Trelis. Circa 1250 Roger Ie Potier,

Lord of Trelis rectified the boundary between his land and the monks

land of Lismanahaeg. Circa 1260 Reginald Ie Potier released to Sir

Richard de Reskymer the mill in his demesne of Treles and another

mill further down the stream at Polcronogou (Polkernogo) and the

multure of his tenants in Treles,Lanharth,Trebyhan and Polcronogou

with power of distraint, in default of multure, on his land of

Menedlaed in the fee of Treles. He also undertook not to erect any

other mill at Treles. Trelease Mill remained one of the Manor Mills

of the Manor of Reskymer Meneage for several centuries. The mill at

Polkernogo disappeared.

Fields Millrose,Crowsad']ack, Clapper Close,Gew (17) , Barling, P Bean

TRELIEVER (Trelyver 1318,1652) c.f. Treliever in Mabe,St.Columb and

St.Wenn.

Costlost (25), The Plain.

Treliever appears as one of the Tithings of Kerrier in 1283. This

Tithing was coterminous with the Manor of Meneage Reskymer of which

Treliever was the capital.

During the middle ages the largest landholders in the parish of

St.Keverne were the Reskymers of Reskymer in Mawgan. Gilbert, the

first of the family, received a grant of Reskymer from Earl Reginald

as Lord of Helston circa 1170. He heads the Reskymer pedigree and is

stated to have married Elizabeth the daughter and heiress of Zeiote

Paulyn. This marriage probably brought him land in St.Keverne. In the

account of Lanheverne we have noticed a John Paulein granting lands

in Tregonan, etc. to Hervey, son of Gilber (Reskymer) and John, son

of Richard (Reskymer). This was in 1201. Another Charter concerning

the same land is granted by one Nicholas, son of Eilant, probably the

'Zeiote' of the pedigree. Gilbert Reskymer appears from these

Charters to have had two sons, Hervey, a clerk, and Richard, who

succeeded to his inheritance as Richard fitz Gilbert. The latter left

a son, John fitz Richard who married in 1249 ((x) Honorata, the

daughter of William, son of Richard fitz Yve. This marriage brought

the overlorship of Rosenython and other lands on the east coast of

the parish to the REskymers. Their great great grandson was Sir Roger

Reskymer, a survey of whose lands made in 1318 is in the PRO (y).The

first part of this gives an account of all his lands held freely

under him in Menaoch. From this it appears that he was overlord of

the greater part of St.Keverne Parish including

Rosenython,Treloyhen,Treginges,Carnellas,Grufath,Trewillis,Penvounder

,Tregowris,Trelanvean,Trevithian,Trelanveor,Trevalso,Arrowan,Porthcov

erack,Chynals,Kilter/Boscarnon,Roskelly,Tregellest,Kenhewas,Treveen,

Polkernogo,Lanarth,Trebarveth,Treglohan and Roskerwell. The lands

which he held himself are not given but they included

Trewoon,Tregidden,Trelease,Treliver,Trevenwith and Priscan.

During the 14th C the Reskymer lands came to be known as the Manor of

Meneage Reskymer or Reskymer Meneage to distinguish it from their

western lands known as Reskymer Cutter.

John Reskymer of Merthen, Esq., the last of his race, died in 1566,

leaving by his concubine, Margaret Greber, four bastards, all of whom

assumed the name of Reskymer and inherited his lands. John, the

eldest of these, died in 1602 without issue. William, the second,

likewise. Their nephew,John Reskymer, sold the family estates about

1620 to his steward, William Thorns, whose son,John Thorns of Tremayne,

sold the Manor of Reskyrner Meneage with the Tithing of

Treliever,except certain lands already sold separately, to Samuel

Pendarves of Roskrow,Esq.

The heiress of Pendarves married Basset of Tehidy and their

descendant, G.L. BASSET Esq. sold the Manor of Reskymer Meneage in

parcels in 1883.

From an extent of 1621 (z)it appears that the Tithing of Treliever

belonging to the Manor of Reskymer Meneage was then kore extensive

than the Manor. It consisted of 50 tenements, the occupiers of which

had to serve as Tithing men in rotation and attend the Courts of the

Hundred of Kerrier.


TRELOYHAN (Trevleghyon 1260,Trevlechyon wartha and wceles

1280,Trelegyou 1283,Trevelegyon 1318 and Treflegheon 1332) cf

Fields in 1810 P Creek (29),P Bastard,Enjowan(see Nanjowan).

Though named as a small Manor in Domesday, Trembrase was not

afterwards a place of importance until circa 1520 when the heiress of

William Trembrase married Stephen Gayer who by purchasing Trelan and

adding it to his wife's patrimony, bequested a considerable holding

the parish to his descendants, the Gayers of Trembrase.


TREMENHERE (Tremanher 1297,Tremaenhyr 1311),cf. Tremenhere in

Styuthians,etc,='the town of the Long Stone'.The Menhir or long

Trenant appears as a Manor in Domesday but see Trenoweth.
TRENOWETH (Trenewyth 1245,1309,Trenowyth Chamond 1543) = New Town.

Fields: Merchants Orchard,Lazarus f,Telseys Meadow,Vineyard (31).

In 1810: Crous Harvey,Mean Lomber.Lazzy's f and Toprose.

Crouse Harvey (i.e. Harvey's Cross) named in a deed of 1306 as Crous

Hervy (see Tredinnick) is still the name of the place on the road

from Treleage to Porthallow where it is crossed by the footpath from

St.Keverne to Tredinnick. It was probably called after a cross

erected here by Hervey fitz Gilbert (Reskymer) a clerk, who was Lord

of Trenonan circa 1200. There are no remains of the cross today.

In Domesday (1085) the Manor o£ Trenant (Trenance) is found in the

tenure of Algar. This Manor included Trenoweth,

Trenance,Tredinnick,Roskerwell and was afterwards called the Manor of

Trenoweth-Chamond. Algar was Lord of Edelet or Alet, near Truro. In

1245 his descendant, William, son of Richard de Alet gave the' Manor

of Trenowyth'to Bartholomew de Calvo Monte (Chamond) in marriage with

his daughter Isabella. In 1249 he added to this gift the right to

take timber out of his wood at Kylmonsote(Calamansack in Constantine)
