Tomorrow our exhibition exploring 26 Places in Cornwall / 26 Tyller yn Kernow opens at Poly Falmouth until Saturday. From Angarrack to Zennor – what secrets of language, history & legend can #Cornwall’s place names unlock…? #Cornwall #Kernow #26PlacesCornwall


A is for Angarrack, where our A-Z journey through #Cornwall & its resonant place names begins. Morag Smith reveals how ‘the alchemy of rock transforms a landscape’. Image by Anthony Prothero #Kernow #26PlacesCornwall 26project.org.uk/26placesincorn…


B is for Bodmin, where John Simmons converses with Saint Petroc and asks, ‘what do they say to us, these absent bones and present stones?’ Image by @RogerThorp #Kernow #26PlacesCornwall 26project.org.uk/26placesincorn…


"Once understood, Cornish place names unlock a new way of seeing our ancestors’ interactions with the landscapes around them..." Dr Kensa Broadhurst, a Bard of the Cornish Gorsedh, in her insightful introduction to 26 Places in #Cornwall. #26PlacesCornwall 26project.org.uk/26placesincorn…


R is for Rescorla – home to a thriving centre of Cornish culture and language. ‘A place to take with you, held up to your ear, just like a shell,’ writes Alex Mawson-Harris. Image: Steven Barritt #Cornwall #Kernow #26PlacesInCornwall 26project.org.uk/26placesincorn…





This Rebecca Makkai is No Longer on This Platform novel is a sharp, twisty page-turner that deals with uncomfortable themes such as murder, racism, sexual abuse, the fallibility of memory, adolescent cruelty, privilege and grief. 26.org.uk/articles/inter… #MustRead #authorlife #BookReview
