    Only three, and I know that there are plenty of other good ones to do, so I agree with this proposal!

    Only the Still & West for me but I remember it as slightly rougher - no bottles allowed over the bar; not good when the barmaid couldn’t pour White Shield

    Default Cornwall

    It's not a county I'm that familiar with or all that keen on but here's a list of 50 :-

    https://www.cornwalllive.com/whats-o...ll-2018-382773

    I can come up with six all reviewed here. There are three in Penzance, the Blue Anchor in Helston, the Old Ale House in Truro and for me the best one the Star at Crowlas near Penzance. For me the best pub in Penzance was the Crown which is not listed.

    I haven't been to Cornwall since the mid 80's and none of these pubs as far as I can remember, The Blue Anchor is on a future hit list. Some nice looking pubs but I suspect some may be a case of not reading a book by Its cover.

    Is Devon included? I don't recall seeing any canals there.

    There are some canals in Devon such as the Bridgwater & Taunton,Grand Western and Exeter Ship Canal but they were isolated from the main system and only accessible from the coast.However I have been to Devon a few times by other means of transport.

    Thanks for that so it seems to be just the far Eastern side of the County. Presumably it's something to do with it being a Peninsula with little industry apart from the Cornish Tin.
