Godolphin Park, Duke of Leeds. Beyond, at some distance, is Crowan, the 18 church of which contains many memorials of the ancient family of St Aubyn. Their ancient seat, Clowance, was unfortunately burned by accident.

Marazion enjoys a peculiar degree of salubrity from its situation at the

foot of a hill on St Michael's Bay, by which it is completely sheltered from cold winds. At a short distance is St Michael's Mount, an isolated rocky promontory, which, together with the tower of the chapel erected on its summit, risos to the height of 250 feet above the level of the sea. The view from the top is inexpressibly grand. St Michael's Mount is the property of the St Aubyn family, who have made considerable improvements on it. Here Lady Catherine Gordon, wife of Perkin Warbeck, took refuge; and many families secured themselves during the rebellion of the Cornish, in the reign of Edward VI. The population of the town Jis 1683.
