Trencrom Hill (or Trecrobben) is a prominent hill fort, owned by the National Trust, near Lelant, Cornwall. It is crowned by an univallate Neolithic tor enclosure and was re-used as a hillfort in the Iron Age. Cairns or hut circles can be seen in the level area enclosed by the stone and earth banks. The hill overlooks the Hayle Estuary and river, and Mount's Bay and St Michael's Mount can be seen to the south. The hill was recorded as Torcrobm in 1758 which is derived from Cornish "torr crobm", i.e. 'hunched bulge'.Trink lies one kilometre to the north west.

James Halse founded the village in the early 1830s in order to provide housing for his workers, making it one of the earliest planned settlements in England. The village was designed with houses laid out in a grid pattern, with each house having enough attached land (1/4 acre) to entitle the occupier to vote.The ecclesiastical parish was created in 1846 and the parish church (1857) was dedicated to St John the Evangelist. A mission chapel was opened on 6 November 1878 because the parish church at St Ives, was too far for parishioners to attend. The village is administered by St Ives Town Council.
