The Tregellas Tapestry, on view at the Cornwall Centre, Alma Place,
Redruth, Cornwall, comprises 58 embroidered panels 'portraying milestones of Cornwall's history and culture' and includes
a panel showing Lady Jane Killigrew (née Fermor) with her husband, Sir John Killigrew and the Killigrew Loving Cup.
Lady Jane gave this silver cup to the Mayor of Penryn in 1633 in
gratitude to its people who had offered her shelter in her time of need. This silver cup is still used today at the annual
Mayor-making ceremony and in 1996 Penryn held a Lady Jane Killigrew Festival to commemorate the event of 1633.
Lady Jane was the daughter of Sir George Fermor of Easton
Neston whose magnificent memorial is in St Mary’s Church, Easton Neston, Northamptonshire.
