From the Wikipedia article
Treneglos (Cornish: Treneglos) is a village in the civil parish of Warbstow, in north-east Cornwall, England. It is in the Registration District of Launceston. In 2021 the parish had a population of 122. On 1 April 2025 the parish was abolished and merged with Warbstow and Davidstow. Treneglos is described as a village "where the old Cornish "trev" [settlement] is no more than a triangular green beside a church and two or three houses". It is above a wooded valley, a choice place where ancient Celtic tribes sought shelter. Nearby, at Wilsey Down, is evidence of prehistoric tumulus. Now, it is not unusual to see sheep wandering along the country roads.
