From prehistoric rituals to industrial innovation to modern tourism, people have continually adapted the land of Cornwall to their needs. This exhibition delves into the Kresen Kernow Collection and the archive of Cornwall Heritage Trust to explore the varied roles that some of these archaeological landscapes have played for Cornwall’s communities over time.

The stories it tells are intimate and, at times, deeply moving glimpses into the lives of the people who are at the heart of what makes Cornwall unique.

This exhibition is a partnership project between Kresen Kernow and Cornwall Heritage Trust, in celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Trust.

The exhibition is part-funded by Poynton Bradbury Architects.
