From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Egloshayle (eglos meaning church and heyl meaning estuary in Cornish) is a small village situated near the banks of the River Camel adjacent to Wadebridge in North Cornwall, United Kingdom.

Egloshayle was a Bronze Age settlement and a river port, rivalling Padstow a little over five miles down river. The trade consisted of tin, clay, wool, and vegetable crops. It is now a busy rural village.
