Overview of Bodmin
The town of Bodmin located South West of Bristol airport a distance of 132 miles that would take around 2 hours 23 minutes by taxi via the M5 and A30. It is situated in the centre of the county of Cornwall, and is on the southwest edge of Bodmin Moor.
St. Petroc founded a monastery in Bodmin in the sixth century. The monastery was deprived of some of its lands at the Norman Conquest but at the time of Domesday still held 18 manors, including Bodmin, Padstow and Rialton. Bodmin is one of the oldest towns in Cornwall, and the only large Cornish settlement recorded in the Domesday Book. In the 15th century the Norman church of St Petroc was largely rebuilt and stands as one of the largest churches in Cornwall (the largest after the cathedral at Truro). Bodmin Gaol, operational for over 150 years but now a semi-ruin, was built in the late 18th century, and was the first British prison to hold prisoners in separate cells (though often up to 10 at a time) rather than communally. Over fifty prisoners condemned at the Bodmin Assize Court were hanged at the prison. Also, during World War I the prison held some of Britain's priceless national treasures including the Domesday Book and the Crown Jewels. For most of Bodmin's history, the tin industry was a mainstay of the economy.
Bodmin's attractions include the Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry Museum, which documents Bodmins Military history throughout the years, Bodmin Jail provides insight into the grisly crimes of its inmates, whilst Lanhydrock House and Garden provides a fascinating look at Victorian living and is set in beautifully cared for grounds, also Camel Valley Vineyard offer tours of its winery with opportunities for some wine tasting.
