From the Wikipedia article
Helland (Cornish: Hellann) is a civil parish and village in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated 2+1⁄2 miles (4.0 km) north of Bodmin. The meaning of the name Helland is unclear: it is possible that the origin is in Cornish hen & lan (i.e. old church). The original dedication of the church is unknown but St Helena is now recognised as the patron. The village is referred to in the Domesday Book as Henland. It was only valued at 10 shillings and only five households are recorded, with one virgate of arable land, 4 acres (16,000 m2) of woodland and 20 of pasture. Grade II listed Helland Bridge, built in the early 15th century crosses over the River Camel here. Lancarffe is a house probably built in the 17th century which is a Grade II* listed building (at Grid ref. SX0825268948). The parish has 2,483 acres (10.05 km2) of land.
