 Launceston
|
|
| Launceston,
an old town with a compact shopping centre, sited at a
major road junction, which was once the county capital.
Ideal if you like churches, try St Mary Magdalene for
a 16th century granite carving, St Thomas's has the largest
font in Cornwall, and at St Stephen-by-Launceston, 1.5
miles north by the Golf Club, this church was the mother church
of the town.
