Ashton ( Cornish: Trevonnen) is a village in the civil parish of Breage, west Cornwall, England, UK at OS grid ref SW604286. It is on the A394 Penzance – Helston road one mile north-east of Praa Sands. [1]
A Mission Church designed by James Piers St Aubyn was dedicated by George Wilkinson ( Bishop of Truro) on 11 March 1884. Costing between £600 and £700, it is built in the Gothic early-English style on a site donated by the Duke of Leeds. [2] Ashton has a pub called the Lion and Lamb and in the past had a football team.
Ashton is also the name of places in the parishes of Poundstock, St Dominick and St Winnow. The meaning of Ashton is "ash-tree farm". [3]
