At WikiProject Cornwall we subscribe to the policies laid down by Wikipedia - particularly civility and consensus building. We are aware that the wording on Cornish entries can sometimes be a contentious topic, especially those concerning geography. You don't have to agree with everything but there is no excuse for rudeness and these things are best solved through consensus building and compromise. For more information see WP:CornwallGuideline.
These pages are not platforms for political discussion. Issues relating to Cornish politics should be restricted to those pages that directly deal with these issues (such as Constitutional status of Cornwall, Cornish nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!
There was a Cornish cross at Tredorwin; it was found in use as a building stone in a cottage at Coldharbour in 1880. (Reference. Langdon (1896), p. 118) It is now in the churchyard. This is listed building 1019167, which also gives the 1880 date.
There is a similar story in the Cornishman of 18th November 1886 (page 7), under the headline of Penzance Natural History and Antiquarian Society:
During the taking down the chimney of an old house, close to Towednack church recently, an ancient cross was discovered in the ruins by Mr W. K. Baker of Tredorwin. Mr Baker procurred the cross and it might now be seen in his garden. It was of granite. about three feet high, with widely cut circular stem and top.
