a town of Cornwall in England, seated in a bottom between two high hills, which renders the air very unwholesome. It consists chiefly of one street, and the many decayed houses show that it has once been a place of greater note. It is a market-town, fends two members to parliament, and had formerly the privilege of the coining of tin. W. Long. 4° 5'. N. Lat. 50° 32'.
