“Why should Cornishmen learn Cornish? There is no money in it, it serves no practical purpose, and the literature is scanty and of no great originality or value. The question is a fair one, the answer is simple. Because they are Cornish.”
“I want our children to grow up enjoying the taste of British apples as well as Cornish sardines, Norfolk turkey, Melton Mowbray pork pies, Wensleydale cheese, Herefordshire pears and of course black pudding.”

The Administrative county of Cornwall was created by the Local Government Act 1888. The act created a system of local government, and as part of this new structure of government, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly were split into different administrative areas.
