N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

I'm afraid the location has defeated me completely.

Trepenkennet which is near St Weonards

or now found it on a map as Trippenkennet.

I googled for ages but was convinced it started Tref not Trep, so didn't manage to find anything can you read the rest of it too?

Tuck Mill

[Tuck Mill ... 'A fulling or cloth mill.' O.E. tucian, 'to full cloth.' A
Tucker is a cloth-worker. ]
But I haven't been able to find one in the area of St Weonards. There is one at Clehongar and one at Marstow - both too far away to be a useful location marker!

That is to say a Mill, not necessarily a Tuck Mill.
