Boscastle in Cornwall on A Perfect Day in Autumn
Boscastle is a village and fishing port on the north coast of Cornwall, England, UK. The harbour is a natural inlet protected by two stone harbour walls built in 1584 by Sir Richard Grenville.
The village, with its picturesque harbour, is a popular tourist destination. Among the attractions are the Museum of Witchcraft, the Boscastle pottery shop, and access to the South West Coast Path. Much of the land in and around Boscastle is owned by the National Trust, including both sides of the harbour,
A flash flood on 16 August 2004 caused extensive damage to the village. Residents were trapped in houses as the roads turned into rivers: people were trapped on roofs, in cars, in buildings and on the river's banks. and the village's visitor centre was washed away.
