Tribute to Cornwall
In case you haven't guessed yet I am a Cornishman born and bred, although currently I live outside of the homeland. As I am the Mad Cornish Projectionist it is only right that I include below some links to, and information about, my county.
Cornwall is situated in the far south west of England about 300 miles from London. It has a set of islands off its far coast, known as the Isles of Scilly. It was once famous for its mining, but this has now come to an end with the closing of the final Tin Mine in 1999. It was once said that at the bottom of every hole in the world you would find a Cornishman.
This bit of the site is dedicated to anything about Cornwall and the Cornish but due to a lack of time and resources it is necessary for me to rely on others. To this end, the greater part of this site comprises links to other sites with Cornish content. Initally this site is small but hopefully it will grow over time.
