Hello all. Am very new to this so will probably get this wrong but I would like to privately contact the contibutor of the text about the Madron Baptistry. (Folio?). How do I do that? Thanks SirTRatbutt —Preceding undated comment added 16:58, 30 May 2011 (UTC).Reply

Good work on the history Reedgunner :) Mammal4 17:05, 14 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

There is a chapel in amongst the gorse and trees near the well that has escaped attention. I don't recall details, but it is there (Penwith61)-DONE

Well spotted - pop it in then :) You can try using the power of google to help if you are fuzzy on the details Mammal4 15:51, 18 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Ive removed links to external website photographs of the baptistry. Not needed now as I have uploaded some of my own photos of the baptistry and surroundings onto wikimedia commons and they're currently at the bottom of the Madron article page in a 'gallery'. Not sure how to include them as thumbnails without making the page look untidy! JimChampion (talk) 22:55, 5 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Nothing about the school, Landithy Hall - used as a theatre for quite a while, The Hunt with hounds held Boxing Day and still one of the main social events of the winter Penwith61 16:06, 18 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Penwith61, Its great that you're contributing, and there is some nice information here. I've removed the (does anybody know?) from the main article as this goes against the style guidlines of Wikipedia. If in future you aren't sure about something, then please leave it out, and ask the question either here on the talk page, or at the wikiproject page and collectively between use we will try and come up with the missing information. The main article should not be used as a drafting pad! Have fun editing Mammal4 13:29, 9 June 2006 (UTC) Sorry about that, thanks for pointing it out. Some other thoughts: Lanyon Quiot, Chûn Quiot, Chysauster etc. Madron Feast and background to the establishment of the chruch. Ding Dong mine, Crying the neck.Penwith61Reply

Manor of Alverton edit

Madron Daniell's Endowed School was built by George Daniell in 1710 (his family were Lords of the Manor of Alverton in Penzance since the 7th century).[citation needed] Seems unlikely as the first mention, according to the wikipedia article on the Manor of Alverton is the Doomsday Book.Jowaninpensans (talk) 23:26, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Annual Trafalgar Service edit

Does anyone have a date for the first mention of this service for Nelson? I started reading the early issues of The Cornishman in 2015 and have now reached May 1885 (issue no 357). Have only found one mention so far – unfortunately I did not make a reference. It was at a meeting of the Pz Natural History Society (in 1984 I think) when Mrs Ross said she thought that the anouncement of Nelson's death was first reported in Penzance. In the 21st May 1885 edition on page 4 there is a letter about a planned restoration of Madron Church and no mention of Nelson. Intrigued to know when the anouncement of his death at Pz becomes a ″fact″. Jowaninpensans (talk) 23:09, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
