Tresco History
Tresco is a small island located in the Isles of Scilly, an archipelago off the southwestern coast of Cornwall, England. The island has a rich and fascinating history that spans thousands of years.
The earliest known inhabitants of Tresco were the Bronze Age people who lived there from around 2000 BC. They left behind several artifacts, including standing stones, burial mounds, and a bronze sword, which are still visible on the island today.
During the Roman period, Tresco was part of the Dumnonii tribe's territory and was likely used as a trading post. The island's strategic location also made it an important target for Viking raiders in the 9th and 10th centuries.
