A photo from north of South Hill looking East. To the left are the buildings of Treven and to the right is Manaton A view towards Caradon over the valley in which Trevigro lies, some of the rooftops can just be seen.
A view from Golberdown to Caradon with the farm buildings of Tregonnet in the centre A fascinating medieval doorway, now placed in a blockwork farm building at Tregonnet, but possibly coming from an earlier farmhouse on the site?
Boundary stone. Probably early 19thC. Granite. Rectangular section with rounded . This is one of three listed boundary stones and stands between Jordan and Polhilsa on the South Hill/Stoke Climsland boundary. This stone, of unknown date stands at Bearland Bridge and marks the distance to Callington and to South Hill
Woodcockwell as it is today. The old farm building can be seen beyond the silos. This was until a few years ago a thriving pig farm but is is now empty.

A view from near New Garden to the south of the parish. The buildings that can be seen in the middle distance are at Woodcock Well. 

Trewolland in the south of the parish. Trewolland Farm is in the foreground with the cottage to the right,  the north elevation is the side that faces the road. A view of Trewolland over the fields
from the south
The narrow lane winds through Trewoodloe and the older properties open straight onto it. Granite gate posts are typical of the area. The pump and stream that used to provide Eygpt and Trewoodloe with its water supply. It has recently been tidied up and restored by local residents.
Picture taken from east of Golberdon looking westwards towards Bodmin Moor. Coombe is hidden amongst the trees in the centre.

View looking eastwards with Trewoodloe on the right. You might just be able to make out the spire of South Hill near the horizon on the left

View from east of Golberdon towards South Hill, the old school is to the left of the church and Higher Ford is in the foreground.

The village of Maders sits alongside the lane leading from South Hill to Callington Golbern Down on a bright day in spring

This used to be the Bible Christian Meeting House at Trewoodloe. Part of the building to the left was demolished and the rest is now serving as an agricultural store. 

The chapel at Trenavin. As can be seen it has since been converted into a dwelling.

Golberdon Chapel probably circa 1880

 

Golberdon Chapel circa 1910, before the trees grew large enough to completely obscure the view.

To the left is a postcard of the War Memorial in Golberdon, probably taken after WW1 when it was first erected.

Below is a photograph of the Vicarage that used to be by the church at South Hill. It was demolished and bungalows stand on its site.
