England's Cornwall

Season 9 Episode 910 | 25m 00s

The far southwest of England is a world unto itself, with a persistent Cornish culture. He explores a world of flowers springing from towering hedges, a tin-mining heritage going back to biblical times, salty pirates' towns and fishing villages, and the Land's End of England. Then, side-tripping deep into vast and mysterious Dartmoor National Park, he hikes to forgotten stone circles.

Aired: 10/07/16 | Expires: 07/17/27
