What a happy coincidence that I just now looked in "The Origin of English Place Names" and under Cornwall it says "characteristic place-names...Those compounded with trev/tre 'homestead, village, town' very often... contain a personal name" but in a section on Celtic elements confirms Tremenheere as" trev.. by the menhir or long stone".
