It looks like Corgolon Bridge, but I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks Elizabeth, I've been doing a bit of googling too, without any luck.

Found it on a later census, it is either Corgolon, or Congolon or Gorgorlon or something ....................

Might be worth looking at the old maps here to see if you can find it:

Oooh! Brilliant! Thank you ladies mwah :):)

Can anyone see Levardro(w) in the parish of Probus, Cornwall?

I'm transcribing some documents regarding this place and would love to know where it was.

I was going to suggest asking the Probus OPC, but then I saw who it was!

Levardro is on this page of the 1841 census, Elizabeth, if that's any help:
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/interactive/8978/CONHO107_147_149-0134?backurl=https%3a%2f%2fsearch.ancestry.co.uk%2 fsearch%2fdb.aspx%3fdbid%3d8978%26path%3d&ssrc=&backlabel=ReturnBrowsing#?imageId=CONHO107_147_149-0101

Also on the subsequent pages.

Edit - I see Kat did a much better job of finding it!

These documents mention various members of my family and I'm trying to work out what happened. I shall post my transcriptions on the Probus parish page of the OPC website.

Last July I photographed quite a few documents when Julie and I visited the CRO. We were back there two weeks ago and I photographed some more.
