Hamlet of Trevalga 'sells for £16m' after row over lord's will

A medieval hamlet in Cornwall has been sold after a row over The Will of The Last lord of The Manor who owned it.

Trevalga, between Tintagel and Boscastle, has been sold for about £16m, a local councillor told The Bbc .

It was left by Gerald Curgenven to a trust when he died in 1959, with profits to go to his school in Wiltshire .

selling the Manor House , six farms and 17 homes would be against his dying wishes and they feared being evicted.

Now property agent Savills has confirmed the sale of The Estate to Castle Lane Securities Ltd, which is part of the William Pears Group (WPG).

Although the sale price has not been publicly revealed, Barry Jordan, Conservative Camelford and Boscastle councillor, said he believed The Estate had been sold for " just under £16m".

Mr Jordan said: " [The Residents '] concerns always have been that someone's going to come in and redevelop it and ruin it.

" The Tenants , The Residents need to know they're not going to be kicked out. "

The Bbc has contacted WPG for comment.
