Boscastle
Boscastle is a village as well as angling port on the north coastline of Cornwall, England, UK, in the civil parish of Forrabury and Minster (where the 2011 Census population was consisted of). It is 14 miles (23 kilometres) south of Bude and 5 miles (8 kilometres) northeast of Tintagel. The harbour is an all-natural inlet secured by two stone harbour wall surfaces built in 1584 by Sir Richard Grenville and is the only substantial harbour for 20 miles (32 km) along the shore. The village expands up the valleys of the River Valency and also River Jordan. Heavy rainfall on 16 August 2004 caused comprehensive damages to the village. Boscastle lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The South West Coast Path travels through the village. The town, with its picturesque harbour, is a preferred vacationer destination. Amongst the tourist attractions are the Museum of Witchcraft, Uncle Paul's Emporium, the Boscastle pottery store, as well as access to the South West Coast Path. Much of the land around Boscastle is possessed by the National Trust, including both sides of the harbour, Forrabury Stitches, high over the Boscastle and also split right into old "stitchmeal" farming stories, as well as big locations of the Valency Valley, known for its connections to Thomas Hardy. The former harbour stables (part of the National Trust estate) are now a youth hostel run by YHA, preferred with walkers. The National Trust runs a patronize the harbour, and a visitor centre in the Old Smithy.
