Real property, £2, 847. Pop., 139. Houses, 27. The property is divided among a few. The manor belonged to the Pomeroys; and some vestiges of a castle of theirs, built in the time of Richard I., are in Tregony. The rocks include mica slate; and there is a carved holy well. The living is a vicarage, annexed to the rectory of Tregony, in the diocese of Exeter. The church is ancient.
