About Cornish-Place-Names.Wikidot.com
Welcome to An Index to the Historical Place Names of Cornwall. Cornish place names are endlessly fascinating. This is mainly due to the Cornish language itself, though a good number of the later English introductions are not without their merit. Place names such as Skillywadden, Kaervran, Jelling the Tinkers, Maengluthyou, Carn Kenidjack, Gwinear and Polwheveral ring out like small and perfectly formed pieces of poetry.
