Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New Book. Dust Jacket Condition: New Book Plus DJ. 1st Edition. New book hardback plus DJ. 152 black and white illustrations of people and buildings etc. 'Truro owed its early importance to its situation at the head of a navigable creek in a superb natural harbour. As the natural centre of a large mining and agricultural area it had been able, from the dawn of history, to exploit its industrial and trading potential by sea. The ancient market town, with its quaint and winding alleyways and streams rippling alongside its cobbled streets, is thought to have been incorporated as early as 1130 AD. Indeed, every Truronian is aware that 'Truro was a thriving town when Falmouth was a furzy down'. Seller Inventory # 014803
