Fix this textNEWQUAY —A FAMED CORNISH RESORT.
Fix this textMO section of England possesses more links with
Fix this textAustralia than Cornwall, described accurately in
Fix this textan old gazetteer as “A Maritime County of England,
Fix this textforming its s.-w. extremity, bounded by Devon on the
Fix this texteast and washed on all other sides by the sea.” It is
Fix this textthe ancestral home of the Commonwealth’s “Cousin
Fix this textJacks,” whose industry and enterprise have exerted
Fix this textsuch a profound effect in the advancement of Aus-
Fix this texttralia’s goldmining activities. Cornwall is a Celtic
Fix this textcounty, whereas Devonshire is English, but it is a land
Fix this textof prehistoric hut-circles, of holy wells and superb
Fix this textgranite churches, having a coastline of wondrous
Fix this textgrandeur, jagged and fierce, with a legion of sandy
Fix this textcoves and tiny harbours, coupled with a climate
Fix this textso mild and sea so Jblufi as ia become possessed of the
Fix this textdesignative, “The Cornish Riviera.” There is no
Fix this textmore delightful spot than Newquay in this favoured
Fix this textrealm, the centre of the pilchard fishery. Located on
Fix this textthe north coast it is guarded by a noble and sweeping
Fix this textstretch of rocks. The great charm of Newquay is its
Fix this textsands, some of (he most extensive and unbroken in
Fix this textEngland. At Porth, the bay adjacent to that around
Fix this textwhich Newquay is built, the sands at low water stretch
Fix this texthalf a mile from high-water mark. Here are several
Fix this textremarkable caverns, that termed the Banqueting Hall
Fix this textbeing the finest. It has much the appearance of a
Fix this textGothic interior, while its neighbour and rival, the
Fix this textCathedral Cave, boasts some five water-worn columns,
Fix this textA favourite resort for Australian visitors, especially
Fix this textthose possessing “Cousin Jack” connections, is an out-
Fix this textstanding natural feature just to the west of the town—
Fix this textthe great promontory—The lowan-—jutting far out
Fix this textinto the sea. The point of lhe lowan is composed
Fix this textof a fine mass of broken black rock which the sea has
Fix this textthrough the ages worn into strange and even eccentric
Fix this textforms. On the left of Towan Head may be seen some
Fix this textremains ol a massive breakwater built practically a
Fix this textcentury ago in an endeavour to form a harbour for
Fix this textthe fishing craft of North C ornwall when caught m
Fix this textwesterly gales, which rage with terrific fury, bringing
Fix this textfrom the Atlantic mountainous seas, which proved the
Fix this textundoing of the breakwater. A smaller artificial harbour
Fix this texthas been built in a more protected place and admirably
Fix this textserves the requirements of the fisher folk, also of the
Fix this textdevotees of yachting and boating in the summer months.
