		"St. Bees," say Nicholson and Burns, "had its name from Bega, an holy woman from Ireland, who is said to have founded here, about the year of our Lord 650, a small monastery, where afterwards a church was built in memory of her.
		After the dissolution of the monasteries, Archbishop Grindal founded a free school at St. Bees, from which the counties of Cumberland and Westmoreland have derived great benefit; and recently, under the patronage of the Earl of Lonsdale, a college has been established there for the education of ministers for the English Church.

	Bee Phylogeny
		The modified labial palpal segments of the LT bees are derived and most bee systematists agree that the ST bees are a paraphyletic assemblage from which the LT bees arose (Alexander & Michener 1995).
		In spite of being a paraphyletic assemblage, ST bees provide the best insights into the early evolution and diversification of the bees and are therefore of importance for understanding bee origins.
		Their study analyzed 109-114 characters for 48 taxa of ST bees, plus 9 LT bees, and 8 spheciform wasp outgroups (in the two families recognized by Melo (1999): Sphecidae and Crabronidae.

	St. Bees Priory
		Bees Priory was a medieval monastic foundation, and the church was 'restored' in the 1850s by Butterfield.
		If the St. Bees organ had not been in existence it is more than doubtful whether the Whitehaven instrument would have been built on such a grand scale in 1904.
		It is similar to the well known harmonics at St. Nicholas, Whitehaven, with the sevenths omitted, but it is of course scaled to suit the parent diapason work, and forms a complete contrast to the quint mixture on the swell, the tierce imparting almost the effect of a reed when the cornet is added.

		St Michaels Mount is thought to have been the site of a tin port in the late Iron Age, just before the Roman Invasion.
		St Michaels Mount was once known as Cara Cowze in Clowze, or, The hoar rock in the wood, which is seen by some as a folk memory of when the sea was much further back, and the area covered in woodland.
		St Michael's Mount is also the starting point for the infamous St Michael's ley, a broad line linking the Mount, St Michael's Church Brentor, St Michael's Church Burrowbridge, St Michael's Church Othery, St Michael's Church, Glastonbury Tor and Stoke St Michael.

		This precludes the idea that St. Bees built a church of St. Olaf, considering, too, that their small holding of land neither required it, nor supplied the means to do so.
		On the hypothesis, then, that St. Olaf's church was ' Dy J'Alloo,' the first grant to St. Bees, given by a Charter now lost, possibly given by Olaf I, possibly by Godred II, in the first years of his reign, was the land of that church, viz,, Ballajora, and including the Clerk's Glebe.
