A town of Bodmin lies in the centre of Cornwall, in the United Kingdom, along the american edge of Bodmin Moor. St. Petroc founded a priory here in the 6th century; he gave the alternate name to Bodmin which is Petrockstow. In the 15th century the church of St. Petroc wwhen built & stands as a big church inside Cornwall. For virtually all of Bodmin's history, a tin industry was a mainstay of the economy. It has been suggested that a town's title comes from either an archaic word in the Cornish "bod" (meaning a abode; a late word is "bos") & the contraction of "menegh" (monks). This speculation is each unproved & unprovable since a title is as well thought to predate a institution of the monastery which is popularly supposed to trend lines it; it could but refer to an earliest monastical personal injury settlement instituted by St. Guron, which St. Petroc took when his places. It has the railroad station on the Peachy American Main Line using the heritage branch Understand Bodmin Parkway railway station
