Helston occupies the valley of the River Cober in Cornwall, south-west England. The town lies just north of Loe Pool, Cornwall’s largest natural freshwater lake, separated from Mount’s Bay by the shingle ridge of Loe Bar. Its streets reflect Helston’s long role as a market town for the surrounding rural and former mining districts. Each 8 May, Flora Day brings the Furry Dance to the centre, as processions move through shops and public buildings to traditional Cornish music. The nearby Lizard Peninsula and the coast around Mount’s Bay extend the setting well beyond town. Browse additional webcams from Cornwall to extend your view of south-west England.
