226 ST. Michael's mount. 



Harris was holding it for his life on condition of maintaining a 

 gunner, a porter, and thi-ee soldiers. The grant to Bassett 

 includes the tithe of garb out of Hellowe, alias Enhellowe, 

 Pencomhe, Alvernon, Eeskaige, and Penzance in Cornwall, as 

 well as the tithes of Trehiday in lUogan, but it excepts to the 

 Earl of Salisbury and his heirs the manor of Treraboe, alias 

 Trefaboe, the rectory and parish church of St. Hilary, the tithe 

 of corn and hay arising in St. Hilary (but not the tithe of fish) 

 and a barn belonging to the said rectory, the tithes of St. 

 Clement's, near Truro, the tithe fish of a little creek called 

 Porthemals in St. Hilary* (except tithe fish within the bay of the 

 Mount whether in St. Hilary or elsewhere), a messuage and 28 

 acres of land called Anhey in St. Keverne, a messuage and 30 

 acres called Carnellock in St. Martin's, a messuage and 18 acres 

 in Selant (sw), a messuage called Lambodoe in St. Clement's and 

 60 acres belonging thereto, and the tithes thereof, and a close 

 containing 9 acres in Moresk, " all which excepted premises were 

 formerly parcel of the possessions of the late Priory of St. 

 Michael's Mount."f Comparing the properties described in this 

 conveyance with those in Earl Mortain's grant, we may perhaps 

 venture to identify Trevelaboth as Treraboe in St. Keverne, 

 Amaneth as Anhay (perhaps also the same as Manael named in 

 the grant of 30th December, 1290, mentioned below), and 

 Carmaillock, and Carnellock, we may regard as clerical errors for 

 Caervellock, in the parish of St. Martin. 



In the Domesday Survey the manors of Treiwal and Treuthal 

 (now apparently the Mount itself and Truthwall or Tregurtha in 

 St. Hilary) appear as having been the property, in the time of 

 Edward the Confessor, of Brismar, Prior of St. Michael's, and at 

 the date of the survey as the joint property of the Church of St. 

 Michael and Blohiu (under the Earl). In the reign of Pufus, 

 Pobert de Mortain, and Almodis his wife, added to the former 

 gifts Ludgvan (Luduhanum), the manor of Richard Fitz Turidf, 



* The tithe of fish forms a frequent subject of conveyance and lease in 

 connection with the Mount, and was, until quite late years, of much value. By 

 lease dated 10th April, 7 Charles (1631), William Earl of Salisbury, granted to 

 Hannibal Newman, of St. Michael's Mount, gent., the tithe of fish belonging to 

 the Mount and the cellar used for curing the same (except the tithe fish at 

 Porthemals) for four years at ^620 a year.
