COENISH DEDICATIONS. 451 



The banks of fortification at S. Anthony in Meneage (or 

 Kerrier) are so considerable that they were occupied by Sir 

 Thomas Fairfax in 1646, who added to them. The farm bears 

 still the original name of Lantinney, or Llan-Dinas. In Bishop 

 Grandisson's Register, the parish is thrice mentioned as that of 

 "Sancti Antonii de Lanyntenyn," or "Ecclesia de Lannyntenyn," 

 or simply as "Ecclesia S. Antonii in Cornubia." 



As we have twice Castel-an-Dinas, so we have twice a Lan- 

 an-Dinas. An is "on the," or " out of the," and we see at once 

 how Lan-Andinas became Lan-Anthony. 



As at Launceston (S. Mary Magdalen), at Warbstow (S. 

 Milburga), at Wemborough, at Helsbury, and S. Dennis, 

 there were chapels connected with the caer or dinas. In the 

 ease of S. Denis, the church occupies the centre of the dinas, 

 the mounds of which remain around it. In this case Dinas 

 became Denys, whereas in the three other cases, an-dinas 

 became Antonius. 



The church at S. Anthony-in-Eoseland was dedicated on 

 October 3, 1259. The old fortified caer may still be traced. 

 According to popular tradition, 8. Anthony-in-Kerrier is 

 attributed to Normans, who in danger of shipwreck, vowed to 

 build a church on the first land they reached, when overtaken 

 by storm, and nearly wrecked. Menhenniot was, as the name 

 implies, originally dedicated to S. Neot, but it was re-dedicated 

 to S. Anthony. It is difiicult to say to what Anthony or 

 Antoninus these churches are dedicated. 



Antonius was martyr at Home under Valerian, 15 December.
