FALMOUTH GROWS WEST

When the town of Falmouth was established in 1661 it consisted of a small but growing settlement at Market Strand. As it developed and prospered it grew westwards, spreading across land where there had previously been farms and fields.

Using photographs, maps, and other archive material we look at where, when, and why this expansion of Falmouth took place and what this tells us about the town's history.
