At some time shortly before 1500 the overlordship had been inherited, with Umberleigh, Heanton Punchardon and many other estates, by the Basset family of Whitechapel, Devon and Tehidy, Cornwall, co-heirs of the Beaumonts.
James Coffin left no male progeny by his wife Anne, only a daughter Jacquet, who married George Basset of Tehidy, Cornwall.

George Basset (d.1589), second son of Sir John Bassett (1462-1529), KB, of Umberleigh, was given Tehidy by his nephew Sir Arthur Basset (1541-1586), of Umberleigh.
Camborne Hill itself runs from Tehidy Road Post Office up Fore Street to the corner of HSBC with Commercial Street.
