See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:

Be bold - if you know something about Cornwall then put it in! We value your contributions and don't be afraid if your spelling isn't great as there are plenty of spelling and grammar experts on clean-up duty!
Articles on settlements in Cornwall should be written using the standard set of headings approved by the UK geography WikiProject's guideline How to write about settlements.
At WikiProject Cornwall we subscribe to the policies laid down by Wikipedia - particularly civility and consensus building. We are aware that the wording on Cornish entries can sometimes be a contentious topic, especially those concerning geography. You don't have to agree with everything but there is no excuse for rudeness and these things are best solved through consensus building and compromise. For more information see WP:CornwallGuideline.
These pages are not platforms for political discussion. Issues relating to Cornish politics should be restricted to those pages that directly deal with these issues (such as Constitutional status of Cornwall, Cornish nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

Is it true to say that these privately owned cottages are unique in the United Kingdom in that the properties are only accessible via a section of privately owned road (owned by someone else). This factoid may have been on BBC TV's Nationwide programme many years ago. If so, is this worth adding?

Would be unsure if this is unique - unusual certainly, but I strongly suspect that there are similar properties elsewhere in Cornwall (can't give citations, just memories of helping my mum househunt!)DuncanHill 13:56, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

copyright violation

The original version from 31 January 2004 (and hence most of the subsequent versions) of this article is virtually identical with this site (which claims "© 2005, 2006 SimplyVisitor.Info", whatever that's worth). I guess the first change that is clearly in Wikipedia, but is not on the other site, is the addition of the Cornish name on 25 February 2005. So unless it's written by the same author, there's a clear copyright violation - could someone try to check on whose part? Thanks, Ibn Battuta 01:42, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
