Godolphin House
Godolphin is a 15th century house, now a National Trust property, on the outskirts of Helston. It was the home of the Godolphin family until the middle of the 18th century. Today's structure is only part of what was once a very extensive granite-built Tudor and Stuart house. The Godolphins made their fortune from the local tin-mining industry, becoming one of the leading families of West Cornwall.
Sir William Godolphin was a soldier in the service of Henry VIII and his son Sir Francis Godolphin became the Governor of the Scilly Isles
William Godolphin's grandson, Sidney, was appointed to the post of Lord Treasurer to Queen Ann between 1702 - 10, with responsibility for financing the Duke of Marlborough's wars. He was later created Earl of Godolphin and his son married Marlborough's daughter.
