This is a vicarage valued in the King’s Book, £13. 6_s._ 8_d._; the patronage in Lord Arundell of Wardour; the incumbent Mr. ―――― Whitford, who was presented to it by the University of Oxford, on account of the recusancy of the patron, the Lord Arundell of Wardour. The first place in it to the west, is Trebarfoot; this gave name and habitation to a race of gentlemen. Penfoune was likewise the seat of a very ancient family, from hence denominated. But this family, by Mr. Hals’s mistake, being already treated of in Jacobstowe, I shall only add here, that in Domesday Book is a manor called Penfon, by which probably this place is meant; and if so, it was one of those given by William the Conqueror to Robert Earl of Morton, when he made him Earl of Cornwall. The manor of Poundstock is called in Domesday Book Ponpestock, and was one of the manors given by William the Conqueror to Robert Earl of Morton, when he made him Earl of Cornwall. THE EDITOR. The church of this parish is situated in a pleasant valley, but without any thing peculiar by which it may be distinguished from others. The principal village in the parish is called Tregoll. Mr. Lysons says that Poundstock was held under the manor of Launcels, citing the Exeter Domesday; and that the manor of West Widemouth was granted by Reginald Earl of Cornwall, to William Botreaux, from whom it passed by female heirs to the families of Hungerford and Hastings; from the last it was purchased by the Granvilles, and now belongs to Lord Carteret. The manor of Woolston was purchased by the late Lord Dunstanville. The great tithes of this parish were purchased by Mr. George Browne of Bodmin, when the whole Arundell property in Cornwall was sold, about fifty years ago; and now belong to his grandson. The advowson of the vicarage is in John Dayman, esq. and the Rev. Charles Dayman, was instituted as Vicar in 1809. This parish measures 4304 statute acres.
