Profile

Toiswald 2’s estate lay on the edge of the Goonhilly Downs in south-west Cornwall. The estate was small, even allowing for the note in Domesday Book that he paid tax for 1 virgate TRE but that 1 hide was there (which may reflect the ‘under-rating’ of assessments noted elsewhere in Cornwall and Devon rather than being an instance of beneficial hidation), and no-one else of this unusual name (or, indeed, of any potentially similar name) was recorded in DB as holding land either TRE or TRW.
