Falmouth All Saints comprises much of the new part of the town to the north and west. Falmouth is on a peninsula at the west side of the entrance to Carrick Roads, a large natural harbour on the south coast of Cornwall fed by the River Fal. Falmouth is the largest port in Cornwall whose real prosperity began in 1688 when it became a Post Office packet station. Brigantines sailed with mail to Spain, Portugal, West Indies and North American Colonies until 1852 when mail traffic was transferred to Southampton.
A tribute to those brave people of Cornwall who served or laid down their lives in both World Wars and subsequent conflicts.
