King Ethelstane, founder of _S. Burien’s_ College, and giver of the privileges and sanctuarie to it. S. Buriana, an holy woman of Ireland, sumtyme dwellid in this place, and there made an oratory. King Ethelstane goyng hens, as it is said, onto Sylley, and returning, made _ex voto_ a College wher the Oratorie was. _Tredine Castel_ ruines at the south-west point of Penwith; _manifesta adhuc extant vestigia_. I hard say that one Myendu was lord of it. Myendu signifieth blak mouth or chimne. _Ryvier Castel_, almost at the est part of the mouth of Hayle River on the north se, now as sum think drounid with sand. This was Theodore’s castle. _Combe Castelle_, ubi tm (?) loci vestigia, and Pencombe a little foreland, about a mile upper than Kenor on Severn. Basset hath a right goodly lordship caullid _Treheddy_ by this Cumb. There cummith a good brooke down by Combe. _Cayl Castelle_ a mile by est from River in S. Filake’s Paroche. _Nikenor_,[48] a 2 miles from Ryvier, sumtyme a great toun now gone. 2 paroche chirchis yet seene a good deale several one from the other, sumtyme in the towne, but it is now communely taken to be in S. Guivian’s paroch; and there cummith a broket to the sea. _Carnbray_, on a hil, a castelet or pile of Basset’s, a mile west of Revier town. There was sumtyme a park, now defacid. SCYLLEY. There be countid a 140 Islettes of Scylley, that bere gresse exceding good pasture for catail. S. Mary isle is a 5 miles or more in cumpace; in it is a poore toun, and a meately strong pile: but the roues [roofs] of the buildinges in it be sore defacid and woren. The ground of this ile berith exceeding good corn: insomuch that, if a man do but cast corn wher hogges have rotid, it wyl cum up. _Iniscaw_ longid to Tavestoke, and ther was a poore celle of monkes of Tavestoke. Sum caulle this Trescaw: it is the biggest of the Islettes, in cumpace a 6 miles or more. S. Martines isle. S. Agnes isle, so caullid of a chapel theryn. The isle of S. Agnes was desolated by this chaunce _in recenti hominum memoria_. The hole numbre almost of v. housoldes that were yn this isle cam to a mariage or a fest into S. Mary isle, and goinge homewarde were al drownid. Ratte islande. Saynct Lides isle; wher yn tymes past at her sepulchre was gret superstition. There appere tokens in diverse [of] the islettes of habitations now clene doun. Gulles and puffinnes be taken in diverse of these islettes, and plenty of conyes be in diverse of these islettes. Diverse of these islettes berith wyld garlyk. Few men be glad to inhabite these islettes, for al the plenty, for robbers by the sea that take their catail of force. These robbers be French men and Spaniardes. One Davers, a gentilman of Wilshir, whos chief house is at Daundesey, and Whittington, a gentleman of Glocestreshire, be owners of Scylley; but they have scant 40 markes by yere of rentes and commodites of it.
