Pelynt

Pelynt (Cornish: Pluwnennys or Pluwnonna) is a civil parish and village in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.

[4] The manor of Pelynt is mentioned in the Domesday Book (1086) when it was valued much higher than Looe; it was held by Algar from Robert, Count of Mortain.

There are a number of interesting memorials including that of Bishop Jonathan Trelawny, whose pastoral staff is preserved in the church.

Details of some of the people who have run the post office, including William Churchill (1856), Harriet Andrews (1910) and Samuel Harvey (from 1929) appeared in a book published in 1988.

The Rillaton Cup and the Pelynt Dagger are two artefacts that have been found in Cornwall that have been claimed to show contact with the Mycenaean world.
