Penzance
Penzance is a town and port in the Penwith district of Cornwall, England. It is the westernmost major town in Cornwall, and is about 64 miles (103 km) west-southwest of Plymouth, and 255 miles (410 km) west-southwest of London.
Situated in the shelter of Mount's Bay, the town faces south-east onto the English Channel. It is bordered to the west by the fishing port of Newlyn. Granted various royal charters from 1512 onwards and incorporated on the 9th. May 1614, Penzance has a population of 21,200 (2011 census).
Penzance's Chapel Street has a number of interesting features, including the Egyptian House, and The Admiral Benbow public house (home to a real life 19th.-century smuggling gang, and allegedly the inspiration for Treasure Island's "Admiral Benbow Inn").
Chapel Street also features the Union Hotel (including a Georgian theatre which is no longer in use), and Branwell House, where the mother and aunt of the famous Brontë sisters once lived.
Regency and Georgian terraces and houses are common in some parts of the town. The nearby sub-tropical Morrab Gardens has a large collection of tender trees and shrubs, many of which cannot be grown outdoors anywhere else in the UK.
Also of interest is the seafront with its promenade and the open-air seawater Jubilee Pool (one of the oldest surviving Art Deco swimming baths in the country).
Penzance is the base of the pirates in Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera The Pirates of Penzance. At the time the libretto was written, 1879, Penzance had become popular as a peaceful resort town, so the idea of it being overrun by pirates was amusing to contemporaries.
