Advent contains the small villages of Treclogoe or Trelogoe, Pencarow,
and Tresinny. Most of the estates in this parish are parcel of the
duchy of Cornwall, being held as free and customary lands of the manor
of Helston in Trigg. The manor of Trelagoe, Treclegoe, or Trenelgoe,
after having been for some descents in the family of Phillipps, was
bequeathed by the late Rev. William Phillipps, Rector of Lanteglos and
Advent, to his nephew John Phillipps Carpenter, of Tavistock, Esq.
whose son is the present proprietor.
