More info about travel in Cornwall: https://www.ricksteves.com/europe/england/cornwall Cornwall was part of a “Celtic crescent” that nearly circles England. The Cornish people spoke their own language, which thrived for centuries. Cornwall is a county of England, but many native-born locals consider themselves Cornish first, British second. #ricksteveseurope #ricksteves #cornwall

  1. Sorry but to be honest, you can't call Cornwall England. Cornwall and England are very different. Even documentaries say 'The duchy of Cornwall' and not 'The county of Cornwall'.
    I'm not trying to sound negative as this was very good (apart from the Cornwall is England bit) but quite a lot of people in Cornwall will be offended that you said Cornwall is English. There was a row not long ago after someone in the government said that Cornish is English.

  2. There was little thought into the accuracy in this video, Cornwall is nothing todo with England, it is a Celtic crown dependency next to England that has been there for thousands of years before the Germans (English) invaded

  3. Any clue why the signpost at 1:25 says "shrewsbury 325 4th august?" I assume Shrewsbury is a location in England that's 325 km away but was this video made on the 4th of August?

  4. Cornish first, English second………… until it come to subsidies. Then they will be anything you want them to be. They are English, they just have big chips on their shoulders.
