Cornwall

Cornwall is a ceremonial county in the southwest extremity of England, forming a peninsula between the English and the Bristol Channels, with a rugged surface and a rocky coast, indented all round with more or less deep bays inclosed between high headlands. Its wealth lies not in the soil, but under it in its mines, and in the pilchard, mackerel, and other fisheries along its stormy shores. The county town is Bodmin, the largest Penzance, and the mining centre Truro.
