Historical notes about the Town of Padstow

Padstow

Padstow is a very ancient place (though it by no means looks its age), which has for centuries had to contend with the misfortune of lying on an estuary which is closed to ships of any real size by a natural bar of sand. But as modern science has now taken in hand the removal of this obstacle, it may be anticipated that the port will at length reap the benefit of its position on one of the few sheltered inlets on the north coast of the Duchy. The name is a curious corruption of Petrockstowe, and derives from St Petroc, a Welsh ecclesiastic who came to Cornwall from Ireland in the missionary invasion of the sixth century. St Petroc's church dates from a time at least even hundred years subsequent to the likeness of him. The other architectural lion of Padstow is Place House, the ancient (circa 1600) home of the Prideaux family, and a curiosity of a somewhat uncommon order is the fifteenth-century church of St Enodoc, which was rescued and restored to daylight when all but entombed by the shifting sands of Padstow Bay.
