Boskenna
Boskenna is an early medieval settlement and large 17th-century mansion house with associated farms in west Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.〔Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 203 ''Land's End'' ISBN 978-0-319-23148-7〕 It is within the civil parish of St Buryan and is first recorded as ''Boschene'' in the 13th or 14th centuries. The house was enlarged and altered in the 19th century. Nearby, to the south, is the valley and cove of St Loy and the site of St Loy's chapel which was on the Boskenna side of a stream.
Boskenna was the home of the Paynter family for centuries until sold in 1957, at which time it consisted of seven farms, five market gardens and a manor house.〔James Martin Hosking, ''Boskenna and the Paynters'', Penzance Publishing, 1999, ISBN 0-9501296-4-X〕 English author Mary Wesley lived at Boskenna for a period of time and later used it as a backdrop in her novels ''The Camomile Lawn'', ''Not That Sort of Girl'', ''A Dubious Legacy'' and ''Part of the Furniture''.
