China Clay

Tin Mines and China Clay, but if it were down to me to decide what the Far South West is famous for it must be the Clotted Cream that goes on top of my scones. However the scenery is stunning from the wilds of Dartmoor and Exmoor National Parks to the narrow lanes leading to picturesque villages some of which are in numerous narrow valleys close to and leading to the sea. Mining, fishing and farming used to be the main industries but today tourism is probably the highest earner.
