Version 3 February 2009
In 1920 the Tyringham estate put most of its property in Lelant village up for sale. This list is of estate 
tenants and occupiers and their houses and their land in the village at the time of the sale. The
information is based on the sale book and maps of the sale with additional information about    
present house names by me in square brackets (see Notes). Some of the houses in 1920 contained separate
households and this is not indicated in the Table.

Notes
The property is a house(s) unless otherwise specified.
The Lot number refers to the number of the property in the sale book.
Quay Lane is now called Station Hill.
The sale book says Tyringham Row for what is Tyringham Place; the latter is entered here. It
says 'adjoining Tyringham Row' for what is Tyringham Row and the latter is entered here.
Some lots include several houses in 1920; some lots for one house in 1920 include other houses built   
in the garden since 1920; and in some instances two houses have been merged into one since 1920.
A few unnamed cottages have been demolished since 1920.
In square brackets after the 1920 name is the present name of a house where it has changed or 
where a house name is not given in the sale book in 1920.
I have used the term Land to include everything not a house, eg farm fields and market gardens.
Lot 219 is now 1-3 Park Cottages.
Lot 264 is now Curlew Cottage, Porthgwidden, and St Uny's Cottage.  
Lot 285 is now 10-12 Tyringham Place.
Lot 300 is now Crossways and Crossways Cottage.
Lot 312 and 313 is now 1-8 Station Hill.
