Helland ((コーンウォール語:Hellann)) is a civil parish and village in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated north of Bodmin.〔Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 200 ''Newquay & Bodmin'' ISBN 978-0-319-22938-5〕 The meaning of the name Helland is unclear: it is possible that the origin is in Cornish ''hen'' & ''lan'' (i.e. old church). The original dedication of the church is unknown but St Helena is now recognised as the patron.〔''Cornish Church Guide'' (1925) Truro: Blackford; p. 108〕 The village is referred to in the Domesday Book as Henland.〔Gilbert, Davies (1838) ''The Parochial History of Cornwall''. London: J. B. Nichols and Son.〕 It was only valued at 10 shillings and only five households are recorded, with one virgate of arable land, of woodland and 20 of pasture.〔Thorn, Caroline & Frank (eds.) (1979) ''Domesday Book. 10: Cornwall''. Chichester: Phillimore; entry 5,24,20〕 Grade II listed Helland Bridge, built in the early 15th century crosses over the River Camel here. Lancarffe is a house probably built in the 17th century which is a Grade II * listed building (at Grid ref. SX0825268948). The parish has of land.〔(GENUKI: Helland )〕 ==Parish church== The parish church is dedicated to St Helena, who was the mother of Constantine I. The church comprises a chancel, nave and south aisle. The tower has a pyramidal roof and had a single bell. The church is pre-Norman in origin but the oldest stonework is probably of the 13th century; however in the mid 17th century the tower became ruinous and has not been entirely rebuilt. The name of St Sinney was attached to a tenement on the southern border of the parish; the Giffards were in medieval times the patrons of the rectory and resident not far from the church.〔Cornish Church Guide (1925) Truro: Blackford; p. 108〕 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「Helland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
