Summary | "Excursions in the County of Cornwall" by Frederick Wilton Litchfield Stockdale is a historical and topographical account written in the early 19th century. The work serves as a detailed guide for travelers and tourists, exploring Cornwall's principal towns, villages, noble residences, antiquities, and various points of interest. The author aims to present the county's rich commercial and cultural heritage, making it valuable for those interested in history, geography, and the local landscape. At the start of the work, Stockdale discusses the challenges he faced in compiling the volume due to Cornwall's geographic distance from London and its varied terrain. He emphasizes the county's significance both in terms of its picturesque beauty and its importance to antiquarians and geologists. The introduction sets the stage for detailed descriptions of the local environment, historical context, and notable sites, suggesting that readers can expect a comprehensive overview of Cornwall’s landscape and heritage, aimed at both the casual traveler and the serious enthusiast of the region's history.
