Profile

Bretel 2’s holding was at Trevillyn in central Cornwall, about 4 miles south-west of Bodmin. Even allowing for its possible under-assessment TRE in DB, it appears to have been a small estate. It was the only estate held TRE by someone called Bretel and shows no evidence for a link to the person or persons of that name who were holding land in east Devon, Somerset and Dorset TRW.
