^"ST. RUMON, or RUAN, was a native of Ireland, and a bishop, it is said, who came to Cornwall to end his days in holy solitude. He chose a cell in a certain forest in Cornwall, which then abounded in wild beasts. In this spot he devoted himself to his pious practices, and in God's good time was called to his heavenly reward. About the year 981, when Duke Ordulph had completed the monastery at Tavistock which his father had begun, the relics of St. Rumon were solemnly translated to that church, and were there nobly enshrined. He was regarded with great veneration, as one of the special patrons of that foundation. St Ruan in Cornwall is near the Lizard Point, and several churches in the parish or neighbourhood are dedicated in his honour, as also the Church of Romans Leigh, in Worcestershire. Malmesbury saw the shrine of the Saint at Tavistock, but could learn no particulars of his life."[19] Romansleigh in Devon is named after him.
