This booklet attempts to discover the earliest mention of the main place names of Calstock Parish, to explain how they developed and what they probably mean. There are 65 entries.
The resources of Calstock Parish Archive, held in Albaston Cemetery Chapel, were used quite extensively, as they go back as far as the 1300's and have proved to be invaluable. Many of the original records are on rolls of parchment kept in the Duchy of Cornwall Record Office in London. Thus reference is often made to Court Rolls, Assession Rolls etc as the source of any early mention.
