Boscastle
Boscastle is a village as well as fishing port on the north shore 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 km) south of Bude as well as 5 miles (8 kilometres) northeast of Tintagel. The harbour is a natural inlet protected by 2 stone harbour walls integrated in 1584 by Sir Richard Grenville as well as is the only considerable harbour for 20 miles (32 kilometres) along the coast. The town expands up the valleys of the River Valency as well as River Jordan. Heavy rainfall on 16 August 2004 triggered considerable damages to the town. Boscastle lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The South West Coast Path passes through the village. The town, with its attractive harbour, is a preferred traveler location. Among the destinations are the Museum of Witchcraft, Uncle Paul's Emporium, the Boscastle ceramic store, and accessibility 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 as well as split into ancient "stitchmeal" cultivation stories, as well as big areas of the Valency Valley, understood for its connections to Thomas Hardy. The former harbour stables (part of the National Trust estate) are now a youth hostel run by YHA, popular with walkers. The National Trust runs a patronize the harbour, as well as a visitor centre in the Old Smithy.
