South East Cornwall Heritage Day
S. E. Cornwall Heritage Day – St John Nr Millbrook – Sunday 30th June 2024 – 1000hrs – 1500hrs
St John will be the location for our second Heritage Day of the year. It will be a fantastic day of music, song, and Cornish Dialect. There will be stalls and displays from local OCSs and history groups. Plenty of time has been allowed for a “dish -o-tay” and a drop of saffron cake, not to mention the pasties for lunch, so please come along and enjoy a good yarn with friends. All welcome.
Our heritage days are a joint venture with the Institute of Cornish Studies, and have been funded by Cornwall Council under a Pathways to Intangible Cultural Heritage grant. During the day we will be exploring the pronunciation of Cornish place-names, and our Dialect Recorder, Chris Trevena will be capturing Cornish Dialect for inclusion in our Cornish Voices Dialect Project.
