Budock or Budock Water ((コーンウォール語:Dowr Budhek)) is a civil parish and a village in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The village is situated two miles (3 km) west of Falmouth.〔Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 204 ''Truro & Falmouth'' ISBN 978-0-319-23149-4〕 According to the 2001 census Budock parish had a population of 1,399. This had increased to 1,537 at the 2011 census. The parish includes the smaller villages of Lamanva and Treverva and encompasses of land. The hamlets of Bareppa and Mongleath are also in the parish.〔(Cornwall ); Explore Britain〕 Arable farming in the parish includes early potatoes, broccoli and daffodils. ==History and notable buildings== The earliest recorded rector of Budock was in 1207, although it is believed that the link to Budoc, a Celtic saint, dates back to 470 AD.〔Budock Parish History Group (1974)〕〔Doble, G. H. (1964) ''The Saints of Cornwall: part 3''. Truro: Dean and Chapter; pp. 3-14〕 The parish church, which has a western tower, is partly of the 13th and partly of the 15th century: the box pews which in most churches were removed in the Victorian period remained. Falmouth was originally part of the parish of Budock. The church contains a monumental brass to John III Killigrew (d.1567) of Arwennack,〔Pedigree of Killigrew, Vivian, J.L., ed. (1887). The Visitations of Cornwall: comprising the Heralds' Visitations of 1530, 1573 & 1620; with additions by J.L. Vivian. Exeter, p.268()〕 Falmouth, the first Governor of Pendennis Castle and his wife Elizabeth Trewennard.〔Dunkin, E. (1882) ''Monumental Brasses''. London: Spottiswoode, pp.36-7〕 Besides the parish church, the village also had a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel originally built around 1814, and rebuilt in 1843. Declining congregations eventually resulted in this chapel being closed and sold, and that building is now used as a meadery restaurant. There is no longer an active Methodist Chapel at Treverva which was used by the famous Treverva Choir. They now practice at Penryn Rugby Club. At Rosemerryn is a substantial house of about 1730. The Crag, Maenporth, was a house built by Alfred Waterhouse in 1865 incorporating some Cornish elements: subsequently a hotel,〔Pevsner, N. (1970) ''Cornwall'', 2nd ed. Penguin Books〕 it burnt down in 1981. Budock Water village has a public house called the Trelowarren Arms (known as the Trelly) and there is also a hotel in the parish (Penmorvah Manor) which has a restaurant that is open to non-residents. The village had a post office until 2009 when it was closed following the central government review of rural post offices, but the shop remains as another hub for the village. There is a regular bus service connecting the village with both Falmouth and Helston as well as the outlying villages in the area.〔(Bus timetable link )〕 Tony Kellow would certainly rank as one of its most famous sons. He won the "golden Boot" in 1980/81 for being the Football Leagues highest goal scorer in all four divisions. A memorial to him stands near the Trelowarren Arms and a shrine in his honour is in the pub where Tony was a very popular figure. He still holds the record for goals scored at Exeter City who sold him to Blackpool for a then record fee. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Budock Water」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
