Welcome to Thematic Trails |

"In order to appreciate and understand the nature of our landscape and its development, we need to be there. Yet too often when we look around for suitable information which provides us with a serious explanation, the literature available tends to be academic or rather ‘heavy’ reading. The Thematic Trails guides are refreshingly different. Their style of presentation encourages the reader to observe, enquire and participate in a trail of discovery." Ade Marks (Cornwall College) |
