Tresco is the second-biggest island of the Isles of Scilly in Cornwall, England. It is 297 ha in size, measuring about 3.5 km by 1.75 km .
In early times one group of islands was in the possession of a confederacy of hermits. King Henry I gave it to Tavistock Abbey which established a priory on Tresco; it was abolished during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. The priory was given the care of souls in the secular islands by the lord of the fief. In 1233, a prior here, known as Alan of Cornwall, was made Abbot of Tavistock.
