liskeard

Liskeard (Cornish: Lys Kerwyd/Lyskerrys) , an ancient stannary and market town at the head of the River Looe valley in southeast Cornwall, UK, is the administrative centre of the Caradon District. The town is situated about 14 miles west of the Tamar river. The main London to Penzance Great Western Main Line and the A38 trunk road provide the town with rapid access to Plymouth, the rest of Cornwall and the motorway network. The town is also served by the Looe Valley branch line to Looe. Within easy reach to the south of Liskeard are the coves and resorts of the south Cornish coast, whilst the vast rugged expanse of Bodmin Moor lies to the north. Before 1885, Liskeard was a parliamentary borough, being represented by two MPs before 1832 and 1 MP between 1832 and 1885. In the latter year, its constituency was abolished.
