Triggshire, Ancient administrative hundred in northern Cornwall, United Kingdom
The territory of Triggshire spans across Bodmin Moor and includes the town of Bodmin along with several districts to the north and west of the moorland.
The name Triggshire first appeared in the seventh century as Pagus Tricurius, translating to land of three war hosts, indicating its military significance in early Britain.
The twelve parishes of Triggshire maintain their medieval religious structures, including St Tudy, St Breward, and St Mabyn, reflecting the area's ecclesiastical heritage.
The region now forms part of the Archdeaconry of Bodmin and Diocese of Truro, with local administrative offices located in the town of Bodmin.
Archaeological discoveries at Tintagel Castle within Triggshire revealed imported pottery, demonstrating the area's role as a gathering point for regional military forces.
