  • This video narrated by Howard Curnow, Cornish Bard was a favourite of my late Granny. When she passed away I inherited her collection of holiday videos. I have looked on the internet and cannot find this to buy on DVD. I only upload videos at the time of upload that are not available today unless you buy it second hand on ebay. Part of my Granny's collection are DVDs - as these are still available to buy I will not be uploading them.
    Information from the VHS cover:
    Cornwall was and remains, a land apart. Historically, it has its own kings, own parliament, own language, own culture even its own saints. Cornwall's history spans the ages; indeed, its store of stone circles, iron age forts, standing stones and underground 'fougous' is the most comprehensive in Britain. Cornwall in every scene remains a land of beauty, myth and legend. Some of its traditions are clearly pagan in origin; yet it was from these distant shores that the flickering torch of Christianity was carried aboard in the Dark Ages. History and Legend, festival and myth are as much a foundation of Cornwall's character as its inimitable harbour villages or desolate moors. Welcome to Cornwall of which seventy locations are reflected in this fine production.
    This VHS has a few frames of a random programme - I don't know how this happened. Either it was a mistake on my Granny's part or a weird glitch on the original.

    Thank you for uploading this video Paul, I used to have the VHS cassette of this purchased it in Cornwall back in the 1990's, loved watching this again after so long 😀

    Wow, YT recommended this, what a shocker. I think I've watched it before, but nothing like a refresher. SO BEAUTIFUL and all the culture and "old ways" might need to be revived here really soon. I hope most of these places are still around and the people have kept the old way alive.
    Thanks again Paul. Love me some Cornwall. Love Paul Goddard.

      @@paulgoddard Hey, you speak at a pace making for easy hearing and learning Paul. Maybe the tourist information board would be interested...

    I have this and many VHS tapes like this of Cornwall, Plymouth and Devon but all my tapes are copyright. By AMT Multimedia.

      Thanks Barry, are any of these avaliable on DVD or to currently buy? I never want to take money out of anyone's pocket. If AMT Multimedia still exists and sell this DVD I'll definitely remove it.

    Pity they showed the hideous Lands End monstrosity. Act of vandalism inspired by greed.

    A dollop of poverty in this beauty.
