In Domesday Book Stratone was one of the manors given by William the
Conqueror to his half-brother Robert Earl of Morton, when he made him
Earl of Cornwall.
In the extent of Cornish acres, 12 Edward I. (Carew, fol. 48), it
is valued in 21. In 3 of Henry IV. (Id. fol. 40 b.) Ranulph de Albo
Monasterio (Whitchurch) [a family in this parish, formerly called
Blancminster] held here one knight’s fee.
