Cornwall is like the Mediterranean - in Britain

On a sunny day, the southwestern corner of our neighbouring island can seem more Mediterranean than it is Atlantic. Dean Van Nguyen visits a place that holds itself apart from the rest of the inhabitants of England.

You’re Cornish first, English second.  That’s the unified message from the people of the British coastal county, some of which are denied universal recognition as true Cornish men and women by the fact they weren’t born in the area.

It doesn’t matter if you arrived as a baby and spent all your life in Cornwall.
