LORD BUEGHLEY's MAP OF BUDOCK AND MTLOR. 161 



In Boazio's map, of 1597, the rest of the buildings of 

 Glasney College appear as scattered ruins. It is unnecessary to 

 dwell on Glasney or Penryn, as Mr. Michell Whitley, after quot- 

 ing the Commissioners' Reports on Grlasney and Grluvias Church, 

 has also described from this map the river stockade, the butts, 

 the Palace, the College Mills, the Penrya Manor Mills, and the 

 east and west woods. (Cornish Chantries, 1882). 



It may be thought desirable to insert here some notice of 

 Arwenack. The present house was built in 1567* — the year of 

 his death — by John Killigrew, the first captain of Pendennis 

 Castle, and largest landowner in the neighbourhood. A sketch 

 of the former castellated house is drawn in Lysons' Cornwall 

 (Britannia) as it appeared before 1544, but the name Arwenack is 

 not mention ed.f Mr. Martin Lister Killigrew wrote in 1 737 that 

 Arwenack House was the finest and most costly house then in 

 the county, as to "this time in part appears by the stately hall 

 window still standing." 



The buildings inclosed a quadrangle on three sides (see ground 

 plan of Arwenack — Plate E) ; on the fourth side there faced the 

 harbour a tower with flanking walls, of which no trace remains. 

 On the south and north sides there were distinct suites of apart- 

 ments ; on the west side were the kitchens, which communicated 

 into the banqueting hall, which stood apart at the S. W. extrem- 

 ity. The large oven and open chimneys are still to be seen in 

 the kitchens. That which seemed a tower in the angle between 

 the hall and the south side of the house, was open behind so 

 that it must have formed part of other buildings, not now 

 recognised. The circular tower at the north angle of the 

 original structure is pierced with loop-holes, for musketry to 

 command the front and north wall : in the map there may be 

 also noticed a stockade to cover this north wall. In other 

 maps an earthwork or " barycade " is shewn, which covers the 

 approach seaward. Several stone balls are found, which were 



* Hals " Parochial History of Cornwall," p. 126, wrote that Sir John 

 Killygrew, Knt., in 1571, built the greatest part of the Old House now standing 

 there. 



t The word " Gyllingdowne " thereon, refers to a proposed fort, which was 

 nerer erected.
