Around seven miles south of Bude in #Cornwall, Crackington Haven is the largest settlement in the rural parish of St Gennys. The hamlet of St Gennys, on high ground to the north of Crackington Haven, is home to the parish church which dates back to medieval times and is thought to have been built on an early Celtic site. The parish also has historic slate quarrying and mining areas, and a considerable maritime heritage. The parish lies within area two of the Cornwall National Landscape, formerly known as the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and it hosts a number of county wildlife sites. *Andrew Townsend is a journalist and writer.
