Note
"Fowey (/ˈfɔɪ/ (listen) FOY; Cornish: Fowydh, meaning ´Beech Trees´) is a port town and civil parish at the mouth of the River Fowey in south Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. The town has been in existence since well before the Norman invasion, with the local church first established some time in the 7th century; the estuary of the River Fowey forms a natural harbour which enabled the town to become an important trading centre. Privateers also made use of the sheltered harbourage. The Lostwithiel and Fowey Railway brought China clay here for export." - (en.wikipedia.org 21.10.2021)
