Etymology
Possibly canter is for cantel by dissimilation. If so, we may perhaps compare Tregantle (Co), Argantel 1086 DB, Tregantel 1303, 1306 FA, in which the second element is probably a Cornish word corresponding to the Welsh cantel (l ), 'circle, rim.' Cantrell is on the slopes of a circular hill.
