Callestick (Шаблон:IPAc-en Шаблон:Respell[1] Шаблон:Lang-kw) is a hamlet in Cornwall, England, UK. It is Шаблон:Convert north-west from Truro and about Шаблон:Convert south of Perranzabuloe.

The manor of Callestick was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) when it was held by Robert, Count of Mortain from Bodmin Monastery; before 1066 it had been held by a thane from the monastery.

The value of the manor was 3 shillings though it had formerly been worth £1 sterling.[4]
Callestick lies between Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert above sea level.
Landmarks
About Шаблон:Convert to the north-west of the settlement is an English Heritage scheduled monument. It is the remains of a small round enclosure (called a round) of a type that dates back to sometime between the latter part of the Iron Age and post-Roman Britain. The round at Callestock Veor appears to be of a circular hut and is in a reasonable condition compared to other examples of these sites. It was probably the dwelling of a pre-historic farmer and other examples of such sites nearby have dated back to the Bronze Age with the earliest such examples at around 1,700BC.[5] Just to the north of the A30 road and at around Шаблон:Convert south-west of Callestick is a bowl barrow which is a scheduled ancient monument.[6] A bowl barrow is a funerary monument that was built sometime in the Late Neolithic period to the Late Bronze Age (generally to the period 2400-1500 BC). The bowl barrow at Callestick Vean is a low mound, approximately Шаблон:Convert high and with a diameter of around Шаблон:Convert. This bowl barrow is unusual in that it is on relatively low-lying ground; normally bowl barrows are constructed in a more prominent position, such as a hill top. A little further to the west, a further pair of bowl barrows lie close together and are also listed monument.
About Шаблон:Convert to the south-east of Callestick is the West Weal Chiverton mine. It was mainly a lead mine producing over 45,000 tons of high grade lead and over one million ounces of silver between 1859 and 1886.[7]
