Treleigh

Treleigh (Cornish: Trelegh)[1] is a hamlet north of Redruth in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.[2]

Treleigh parish church

The ecclesiastical parish of Treleigh was taken out of the parish of Redruth in 1846, and the parish church of St Stephen was built at the same time. The manor house of the manor of Treleigh was on a site much nearer to Redruth.[3]

Manor of Treleigh

In the early 19th century, the manor belonged to Sir William Knighton, who was a physician to George IV. A descendant of Sir Francis Drake, Colonel Drake, owned the manor through marriage to one of Knighton's daughters.[4]

gollark: The entry-level desk job things will probably get increasingly automated away anyway.
gollark: I didn't say that that produces *good* outcomes for people involved.
gollark: Apparently the (or at least a) reason for this problem is that a degree works as a proxy for some minimum standard at stuff like being able to consistently do sometimes-boring things for 4 years, remember information and do things with it, and manage to go to class on time. So it's useful information regardless of whether the employer actually needs your specialized knowledge at all (in many cases, they apparently do not). And they're increasingly common, so *not* having one is an increasing red flag - you may have some sort of objection to the requirement for them, but that can't be distinguished from you just not being able to get one.
gollark: The solution, clearly, is to ban asking people if they have degrees when hiring, and force them to be tested on other things instead.
gollark: That wouldn't destroy it.
