Treneglos (Cornish: Treneglos) is a village and a civil parish in north-east Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is in the Registration District of Launceston.
Treneglos is described as a village "where the old Cornish "trev" [settlement] is no more than a triangular green beside a church and two or three houses". It is above a wooded valley, a choice place where ancient Celtic tribes sought shelter. Nearby, at Wilsey Down, is evidence of prehistoric tumulus. Now, it is not unusual to see sheep wandering along the country roads.[2]
