Welcome to the Fowey Harbour Heritage Society Website
Fowey harbour, which includes the communities of Fowey, Bodinnick and Polruan, has been a significant international trading port since the medieval period and is still a working port today, exporting china clay. Our aim is to encourage you to explore the area and find out more about the places and people that have contributed to its heritage.
Promoting the heritage of the Fowey harbour area
The Society introduces you to the rich and varied history of Fowey harbour and what you can see today by:
- Organising talks
- Publishing an annual journal
- Presenting our annual heritage awards
- Providing heritage grants to local organisations
- Promoting guided walks
- Working with other societies on heritage projects
Postponement of talk 3 September
Because of the ongoing concerns with regards to Covid we regret that we have decided to cancel the talk on Cornish Gigs which was due to take place on 3 September.
A new date will be arranged and all those who had booked tickets for this event will have their tickets transferred to the new date. Alternatively a refund will be provided if requested.
We are sorry to take this action but the safety of all those involved is our prime concern. 3/9/2021
