Encyclopedia
Porth Navas is a small village at the head of the west end of Port Navas Creek
, part of the Helford River
. It is located near Mawnan Smith
and Falmouth
in Cornwall
, United Kingdom
. It lies within the civil parish of Constantine. On 1 April 2009 all of Cornwall's District Councils were abolished and power centralised at County Hall in Truro: the new authority is known as Cornwall Council.
Porth Navas's prosperity -- for jobs, living and recreation -- depends on its once pristine beauty as part of the Helford River. A campaign group has been established in the Village to protect and preserve Port Navas Quay -- a Grade II site which has been visually spoiled and degraded.
