Peverell
Peverell (anciently Weston Peverell) is a neighbourhood of Plymouth in the English county of Devon. The 2001 Census estimated the population as 6,455, increasing dramatically to 13,553 at the 2011 census. History The area was originally part of the manor of Weston, listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as the 73rd of the 107 holdings of Juhel de Totnes (died 1123/30), Feudal baron of Totnes. It was later acquired by the Peverell family of Ermington in Devon, after which it became known as "Weston Peverell" to distinguish it from other similarly named places. It passed via the heiress Amicia Peverell to her husband Nicholas Carew (died 1311) of Carew Castle in Pembrokeshire and of Moulsford in Berkshire, the founder of the prominent and widespread Carew family of Devon and Cornwall.
