Cornwall's scenery is amazing. Rugged cliffs, rolling hills. Fantastic beaches that stretch for miles. A wealth of wildlife and birds, Inland waters and rivers tumbling to the ocean. Visiting Cornwall is like stepping back in time, and that's a big part of the attraction. But Cornwall or Kernow to the Cornish, is also under threat from so called development and the recent proposal to build 70,000 new homes may pose a threat to Cornwall's unique feel. |

Cornwall's mining industry and landscape gained World Heritage status in 2006. World Heritage Status places Cornwall’s historic mining landscapes on a par with such international treasures as Stonehenge, the Taj Mahal and the Great Wall of China but you may not have heard much about it in the media. Cornwall's 5000 year tin mining history, and the Celtic culture it supported, is often ignored. You can not help but see the remains on the Cornish landscape though.. Tin mining in Cornwall on Wiki.
