Arrallas (also Argallez, Argalles) was a manorial settlement recorded in the Domesday book, when in 1086 it had seven households and three ploughlands.[1] It is located in the parish of St Enoder in Cornwall, England.[2] Its name derives from the Cornish language words arghans and lys meaning "silver court",[3] with the lys likely denoting a site of royal importance.[4]
Arrallas Farm is now part of the 2,215 acre Arrallas Estate acquired by the Duchy of Cornwall in 1952.[10][11] The 18th century farmhouse is a Grade II listed building,[12] as is a range of associated farm buildings.[13]
