Launceston is a town, old district, and civil parish in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is 1 mile (1.6 kilometres) west of the center stage of the River Tamar, which makes up practically the whole boundary in between Cornwall as well as Devon. The landscape of the town is usually high particularly at a sharp south-western knoll covered by Launceston Castle. These slopes drop to the River Kensey as well as smaller tributaries. The community centre itself is bypassed and is no longer physically a main road. The A388 still runs through the community near to the centre. The community remains figuratively the “gateway to Cornwall”, due to having the A30, among both dual carriageways into the area, pass directly next to the community. The other twin carriageway and also alternate main point of access is the A38 at Saltash over the Tamar Bridge as well as was completed in 1962. There are smaller sized points of entry to Cornwall on minor roads. Launceston Steam Railway narrow-gauge heritage railway runs as a visitor destination during the summertime. It was brought back for aesthetic and commercial heritage purposes and also leaves a short country path, it is preferred with visitors but does not run for much of the year. Launceston Castle was constructed by Robert, Count of Mortain (half-brother of William the Conqueror) c. 1070 to control the surrounding location. Launceston was the caput of the feudal barony of Launceston and of the Earldom of Cornwall up until replaced by Lostwithiel in the 13th century. Launceston was later on the county town of Cornwall until 1835 when Bodmin replaced it. 2 civil parishes serve the community and its outskirts, of which the main more built-up management unit housed 8,952 residents at the 2011 census. Three selecting wards include referral to the town, their complete population, from 2011 census information, being 11,837 as well as 2 clerical churches serve the former solitary church, with three churches and a large swathe of land to the north and west part of the area. Launceston’s adage “Royale et Loyale” (English translation: Royal and Loyal) is a reference to its adherence to the Cavalier cause during the English Civil War of the mid-17th century.
