Georgian cottages at Charlestown, Cornwall

            Charlestown, which is near St Austell on the south side of Cornwall, was developed as a new town and harbour from 1790 when work on building the outer quay began. It was named after local landowner Charles Rashleigh who had a hand in its design. The works were to the plans of John Smeaton. It was initially built to handle the export of copper from neaby mines but its main function quickly became the export of china clay from the region's quarries. The inner harbour, which is overlooked by these charming Grade II-listed cottages, is now home to several tall ships, and one or two can normally be found moored there.
