History of the Pub & Local Area
The Jubilee started out as a farmhouse in the 16th century. The original building has since been extended whilst keeping all its character with an open log fire and original slate and wood floors. When the farmhouse was converted into an Inn it was named the Axe, allegedly after an iron age axe found in the nearby “barrow field”. In 1887 the Axe was renamed the Jubilee to commemorate the golden jubilee of Queen Victoria.
The village is most famous as the birthplace of Bishop Jonathan Trelawney (1650-1721) who was imprisoned in the tower of London for his religious stand against King James II. After 3 months he was tried and acquitted. Upon the ascension of William of Orange to the throne in 1689 he was rewarded by being appointed Bishop of Exeter. He is buried in the Parish church at Pelynt.
The Parish Church is dedicated to St Nonna (the mother of St David, the patron Saint of Wales). Bishop Trelawneys’ pastoral staff is preserved in the church. In 1824 Robert Stevens wrote in modern form “the song of the western men” or “Trelawney” commemorating the events and it is now the “unofficial“ Cornish anthem sung at Cornish Rugby matches and other Cornish gatherings.
