The hundred of Trigg (also known as Triggshire) was one of ten ancient administrative shires of Cornwall - see "Hundreds of Cornwall". It was in the north of Cornwall, and covered Wadebridge and Bodmin, along with Bodmin Moor. Its name may be cognate with that of Trégor in Brittany, northwest France.
The parishes of Triggshire consisted of Bodmin, Blisland, St Breward, Egloshayle, St Endellion, Helland, St Kew, St Mabyn, St Minver, St Teath, Temple, St Tudy.
