The parish is named after the Saxon monk, Saint Neot (who also gives his name to St Neots in Cambridgeshire, to where his alleged bones were taken in the early Middle Ages), and means〔(translation http://biblehub.com/strongs/hebrew/4999.htm ) (see "transliteration" of "naah" to "neot"). (In Fellowship's translation http://www.graftedinfellowship.org/uploads/5/7/3/3/5733440/biblical_hebrew.pdf ). See also (biblehub's above translation: a search of the Hebrew Bible by mechon-mamre.org, by inputting "נְאוֹת," shows it refers to a pleasant or productive "pasture" or sometimes a "habitation" (but often either word could make sense) http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt0.htm ) and 'beautiful' instead of 'pleasant' both in () & the Grafted In Fellowship link, above.〕 "pleasant (or beautiful) pasture (or habitation)" in Hebrew. On the northern side the parish includes part of Bodmin Moor and hamlets in the parish include Draynes, Ley and Pantersbridge. ==History== The manor of St Neot was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) when it was held by Odo from Robert, Count of Mortain; it had been held by Godric the priest before 1066. The Count had taken this land away from the clergy of St Neot. There was one hide of land which never paid tax and land for 5 ploughs. There were 1 plough, 3 serfs, 3 villeins, 6 smallholders, 2 cattle, 2 pigs and 30 sheep. The value of the manor was 5 shillings though it had formerly been worth £1 sterling. The priests of St Neot had only one acre of their former land. There were 4 smallholders, 1 ox, 10 goats and 20 sheep.〔Thorn, C. et al., ed. (1979) ''Cornwall''. Chichester: Phillimore; entries 4,28; 5,14,2〕 During the English Civil War St Neot was staunchly Royalist. To commemorate this, each year on Oak Apple Day (29 May), an oak branch is mounted on the top of the church tower to symbolise the historical allegiance. John Anstis, born and buried at St Neot, was an English officer of arms and antiquarian who rose to the highest heraldic office in England and became Garter King of Arms in 1718. Henry Dangar (1796–1861) was a native of St Neot who became a surveyor and explorer of Australia. 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「St Neot, Cornwall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
