Trevalga Rectory is situate in the hundred of Lesnewith, and hath upon
the north the Irish Sea and Ferabery, east Minster, south and west
Dundagell and St. Teth.
In the Domesday Book 1087, it was taxed by the name of Trevaga or
Trevalga. In the Inquisition of the Bishops of Lincoln and Winchester
1294, Ecclesia de Trevalga, in decanatu de Minor Trigshire, was rated
xxxx_s._ In Wolsey’s Inquisition £7. 6_s._ 8_d._ which probably was a
free Chapel, erected before the Norman Conquest; since it hath not
then or now admitted of any alteration of its name, though I judge
from that Inquisition, that it was after the Conquest partly endowed
by the Canons of the Cathedral Church of Exeter; since therein I read,
Canonicus Exon. percepit de Ecclesia Trevalga v_s._ The parish was
rated to the 4_s._ per pound Land Tax for one year, 1696, £59. 4_s._
8_d._
