Treen (St Levan)
Treen ((コーンウォール語:Tredhin))〔(Place-names in the Standard Written Form (SWF) ) : (List of place-names agreed by the MAGA Signage Panel ). Cornish Language Partnership.〕 () is a small village in the parish of St Levan, in the far west of Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is about inland from Land's End on a short unclassified spur road from the B3315.〔Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 203 Land's End ISBN 978-0-319-23148-7〕 Treen overlooks the Penberth Valley and sits about inland from Treryn Dinas, an Iron Age promontory fort, or cliff castle, with five lines of fortification.〔Craig Weatherhill ''Cornovia: Ancient Sites of Cornwall & Scilly'' (Alison Hodge 1985; Halsgrove 1997, 2000)〕 On the headland is the Logan Rock and to the west is Pedn Vounder tidal beach, which is popular with naturists. Treen Cliff is to either side of Treryn Dinas. The village has a popular pub, The Logan Rock Inn, a village shop, cafe and campsite with views to both Logan Rock and nearby Porthcurno.
Treen lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park.
The first records of the name is ''Tredyn'' (1304) and ''Trethyn'' (1314) and means farm + fort; being near the cliff castle at the Logan Rock.〔Pool, P. A. S. (1985) ''The Place–names of West Penwith''. Heamoor: P A S Pool.〕 A description of the village by Francis Kilvert who visited Cornwall for two weeks in 1870:... and we came to a strange bare wild village where everything was made of granite – cottages, walls, roofs, pigs "crows" (sties), sheds, outbuildings, nothing but granite, enormous slabs of granite set up on end and roofed with other slabs.〔Maber, R. and Tregoning, A. (eds.) (1989) ''Kilvert's Cornish Diary. Journal No. 4, 1870 from July 19th to August 6th''. Cornwall. Newmill: Alison Hodge.〕
This village should not to be confused with the hamlet of Treen, in Zennor parish on the north coast, above Gurnard's Head.
