Foxy 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2005 As I haven't yet met anyone on here in Cornwall, England, I'll just post a link about my County instead of the Country. I love the history of Cornwall, it's full of legends and folklore. We are famous for The Lost Land of Lyonesse just off Lands End, Giants and piskies that are responsible for constructing some of our finest castles, and of course King Arthur and the Arthurian legend. Many inventors and scientists came from Cornwall: Inventor of the eponymous miners safety lamp: Sir Humphry Davey Inventor of the safety fuse for igniting gunpowder: William Bickford Inventor of steam engines (from my home town): Richard Trevithick Scientist who discovered Neptune: John Couch Adams Inventor of the rocket line apparatus: Henry Tregrouse Even Lisa Simpson spoke of us in her Alternative Christmas Speech! As we used to say in good old Cornwall... "Pinta korev marpleg!" (Pint of beer please!!) P.S Cornwall was a tin-mining and fishing county, but the last woring tine mine came to a close last year, and fishing is on the down.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
