The weather was splendid in the morning and afternoon today. I looked at a page in an old book, "The Cornish Year". Is there anything interesting for today? St Swithin's Day - celebrated in Launcells and St. Stithians. Why? They have no connection with St Swithin. It's seven o'clock in the evening, and it's raining. Will there be rain for forty more days? There are two giants mentioned in the page. 
11th July, 1755, Charles Chilcott was born in Tintagel. 
13th July, 1691, Anthony Payne (7ft 2ins), servant of the Grenvilles,  was buried at Stratton. 

LAUNCELLS (Lanceles 1204) Lanseles “Seled’s church site”
STITHIANS (S.Stethyane 1268, Stythian 1584)                     Stedhyan “St Stethyan”
STRATTON (Straetneat c880) Stradneth (OC) “flat-bottomed valley of the Neth river”
TINTAGEL (village) (Trewarvene 1259) Trewarvene’; Trewarvenydh “farm on a hillside”
